Username: m_trix

Ban reason: "You are connecting through a datacenter or VPN. For administrative reasons we do not allow VPN connections to play."
Length of ban: Indefinite
Ban Issue:
The ban is fair, but I would like a second chance or reduction

Events leading to the ban

I am actively using a VPN.

Reason the ban should be removed

Alright, so, I believe this is where I have to do this.
My WIFI network doesn’t allow me to access basic media and applications without the use of a VPN to bypass this.
Amongst these things is online games or services such as SS14, without a VPN I physically cannot access it, which is why I am writing this appeal in hopes of getting an exemption in order to continue playing the game.

Alternate Accounts

N/A

Small bump since there’s been a bunch of messages since then.

Recently you were able to connect to our servers without VPN, therefore I am closing this appeal

I was able to connect to Goobstation, which doesn’t seem to kick me out due to the use of my VPN.
I haven’t been able to connect or play on Wizden servers for a long time now.

You have connected to Leviathan on the 26th. you don’t recall that?

On the 26th I think I was off staying at someone else’s place, where they have a different WIFI network. Now I am back to where I usually reside and using the same WIFI network that I have to use a VPN to access.
It’s been nearly two weeks since the 26th, which is where the comment of “I haven’t been able to play for a long time” comes from.

My bad, didn’t properly tag you in the response.

Bumping this once again, since I think it got dragged under many posts and it’s been a day or so.

You had many successful connections before the 26th, were all of those in someone else’s house? besides you only started using VPN day 24

I switched connections around mid October where this new WIFI network issue came up. Now I gotta use a VPN, the multiple times I have had a connection throughout weekends is because I have indeed been at someone else’s place where I don’t need to use a VPN.

Given the information you shared I have decided to give you a VPN exception
