josephine Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Haha hey guys, A few of you might of have seen me in the chat asking for help regarding this. So I was banned on a server, its not a typical MAC/IP ban. Have used VPN/Mac spoofer to change those 2 but I am still banned from logging in, even on new accounts. Have formatted/reinstalled my MacBook, and still the same result. What could it be? I don't have access to another computer at the moment. At this pint, I am just trying to figure out what this is and if there is any way around it. I am using El Capitan on my MacBook. Any help would be appreciated :). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As well as that @josephine you may have a HWID Ban. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've even tried to google to see if there was a way, I only saw 1 way which was a 2003 post and I remember it was deprecated. So unless that application was an exe embedding the java applet into it, then it's not possible to mac ban. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what ban could it be and is there a way to get around it on a MacBook? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly just a simple IP ban. Try turning your router off for a few minutes and turning it back on, then (NOT AUTOMATICALLY) reconnect to your ethernet or wifi. Then check your IP & try to login if the IP is different? I'm not sure just spit ballin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
