[Ban Appeal] Multikeying / Greifing?

Post by Bobbylol » 19 Jul 2018, 15:47

Your Byond ID: Bobbylol

Character Name: Victor Ladrinsky

Type Of Ban (Job-ban (include the job), Timed Ban, Permaban): I believe it is a perma ban because I do not see a timer or any other such notification

Admin who banned you (if known): Unknown

Total Ban Duration: Unknown

Remaining Duration: Unknown

What other servers do you play on? None that I mainly play on, quite new to SS13 so ive mostly just been playing this

Are you now or have you been banned on any servers? Which ones? None

Reason for ban (If you have a Permaban, it should be the EXACT MESSAGE YOU GET WHEN YOU LOGIN with the Error code that looks like this: X##XXX##. If you do not provide this EXACTLY you can't be unbanned): Banned by host: N10FEB18 - Multikeying, Greifing

Link to previous appeals for the same ban (if applicable): None

Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc):

I'm not quite sure why I was banned, after doing some reading I discovered that VPN's can get you banned so that could be it, I would like to say in my defense that the wiki rule page: https://cm-ss13.com/wiki/Rules nowhere states that VPN's are bad which is why I had used one, reason I used it is because my school blocks like everything so I just had it running and was going to play a round. the griefing, on the other hand, I have absolutely no idea about, it's most likely a mistake as I legit have no idea how its possible to grief in a game like this and I've never done anything to harm the experience of others.

Vpn's are blocked indeed.
It is a code from another player who did use a vpn.
It does take some time to get around vpn bans.
I can tell you this your notes are empty so it is because of the vpn.

is there any way I can be unbanned due to me not knowing? I didn't have any hostile intent and the wiki rules don't point it out so unless i specifically searched for it I would have had no way to know

EDIT: also if my notes were empty why did it have griefing as a reason?

Well, the people who deal with this have a lot on their plate. So not likely.
We will also need to do some investigation to see if it was your ip,cid or ckey that set it off.
Can I assume you only used a vpn and do not have any alts that are banned?
Nor are you using wine, illegal windows versions or other wierd computer setups?

I only used a VPN, Windscribe to be exact. And no, Bobbylol is my only account. guess I won't be able to play this at school then lol. and also ya, legal windows 8.1 so nothing here could have set it off, was just the VPN doing VPN things. hopefully I get unbanned soon cause I still wanna play ;_;

Replying again just cause like, you said they have a lot on their plate and everything so I understand that, but will I ever be unbanned? and also you should update the rules to include the np VPN thing cause I'm guessing this happens a decent amount

I'm afraid this kind of thing will take quite a while. There are only a few people who can actually handle this kind of ban, and they have a lot of work to catch up on (The person who dealt with this type of ban previously has left the staff team). It is still possible for you to be unbanned despite this. It'll just take a long time.
TLDR: Go back and read it. I spent time writing that, ya know.

Wrote an exception for only your ckey, Bobbylol, so it should work. PM me if you're still blocked and don't use VPNs on the server anymore.

Resolved - exception for ckey
Ban Appeal Users: If I've lifted your perma ban and you're still unable to log onto the server, send me a forum PM regarding it and I'll work to get it fixed in ~24 hours.

Emerald Blood: CM's mommy and the only head staff who does anything. Even though I hate you all sometimes, I still love you.
