Events leading to the ban

Use of a VPN while connecting to Salamander (cloudflare Warp)

Reason the ban should be removed

This is a request of VPN exempetion.

Due to my building’s Wi-Fi being public Wi-Fi I must use a given software, in that case “Cloudflare Warp” to be able to connect to all SS14 servers properly. As such, wanting to play Salamander again I am requesting to be exempt in order for me to play on this specific server, even though this may apply to all Wizden servers.
I have an alternative, being using my phone’s mobile data. One issue being that due to most english servers (and salamander namely) being hosted in the US, giving me extremely poor connection and resulting to being unplayable, more often than not getting timed out over and over.

With CloudFlare warp you can use split tunnels to exclude the game server subdomains.

JesusChrist - You are connecting through a datacenter or VPN For administrative reasons we do not allow VPN connections to play This is not a permanent record against your account turning off your VPN is sufficient

Issue was resolved in discord, for anyone who finds this appeal with a similar issue you can do the following if you are using cloudflare warp: go to warp settings Click on “advanced” Click on “exlude split tunnels” Click on the + Switch to domain and type *.spacestation14.com Do steps 4 and 5 but with *.spacestation14.io As an exemption was ultimately not necessary the request is closed.

While I did hope it would resolve it, it hasn’t. The reason being I explicitely use cloudflare warp to connect as without it it doesn’t work. Resulting in the following message.

My guess as to why it does not work is due to how the public Wi-Fi my living space has works, namely preventing me from doing things such as discord calls, playing most online server games etc.
Which most work by using it.

Hello sorry for the late response.

Considering that you are unable to resolve this even after a lot of trouble an exemption will be added to your account.
