Administrator Maldesto Posted December 28, 2013 Administrator Posted December 28, 2013 We have seen several members over the past few weeks be banned for scamming, flaming, or another reason. IF you are using a vpn/proxy and are linked to the other users that have been banned in the past you will also be banned. Please do not use a vpn/proxy with this website unless you are 100% sure it will never link to another member. If it does you are using it at your own risk. Your IP will never be released by a staff member therefore feel secure in using your real ip.
Swizzbeat Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Sounds solid, should keep the scamming down from players using a fake IP and then get baned, only to return on another IP.
BotRS123 Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) I will do my best, but sometimes I forget to disconnect from the VPN :'( and when I use Chrome, which has all my tabs saved including OSBot, it loads OSBot. Thanks for letting us know. Edited December 28, 2013 by BotRS123
Simon Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 What if another member has the same IP as you?....
Administrator Maldesto Posted December 28, 2013 Author Administrator Posted December 28, 2013 What if another member has the same IP as you?.... No one has the same ip unless on the same connection, which means you are responsible for what they do under your ip.
Kyle Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Looks like I gotta start turning my VPN off when I use the site
Administrator Maldesto Posted December 28, 2013 Author Administrator Posted December 28, 2013 Don't have to, just run the risk of being associated with someone and being banned when we ip ban someone we ban all their accounts associated to their ip + all their ips.
Elysian Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Thanks for the heads up, I will definitely refrain from using a VPN.
Jordan Posted December 28, 2013 Posted December 28, 2013 Thanks. Has been causing problems and I'm glad it's solved.
Quester Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I'm glad to actually see this occurring as it is a problem with all forum-based communities.Though it does involve casualties, what doesn't?Now what about the deal with multiple forum accounts to bypass the multi-tabbing?I'm almost under the impression it is only frowned upon and not a real offense..
Diabrolic Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Nice man, we needed this for the security of the community
