Events leading to the ban

I played a game or two last night after I arrived at my office here in florida and tried to login today after I finished working and received this ban message.

Reason the ban should be removed

I don’t use a VPN for video games. I do have a commercial VPN that I use for business purposes but this is specifically only enabled when I am conducting that business. I do own a business in florida that I travel to from where I live in Georgia, and this location has a dedicated internet connection on a business account with Cox Communications which may be identified as a commercial datacenter, but it is functionally equivalent to a residential internet connection as we are a single-office business. Let me know if you need information that can corroborate this, I just want to play chemist online when I get done being a chemist IRL pls

I’m sure you’ve deduced as much as you’ve played multiple rounds since making this post:

VPNs are banned. Not accounts that use them. You are still able to connect freely while not using your VPN.

We offer VPN ban exemptions if you require one. If you want to be able to access the servers while using your VPN, please create an admin message requesting a VPN exemption.
