Your appeal, including evidence (screenshots, etc)

I do know why I was banned. I am not a multi-keyer.
The reason I was banned is because I once tried to connect with a VPN to CM, which I believe was interpreted as multikeying.
Now, you might ask me, why did I attempt connection with a VPN?
Well, it wasn't intentional, I use my VPN often just to access a banned site in my country, however, I sometimes forget to switch it off and therefore I end up connecting to things that aren't meant to be connected to with a VPN. In this case, it was CM. The VPN I used was "hide.me", just providing that information in case if might be of any use. So yes, I am not a multikeyer, I've only connected to CM through CKEY "Waseemq1235" and that's it.

Notes:

Indeed looks like a sticky ban.

Using a VPN may result in getting caught in one of these

You will have to wait until EmeraldBlood or SirLordington decide if you should be given a exemption.

Could you explain the spoiler a bit? Can't recall being named "Sasha Gray", neither can I recall not responding to PMs.

Or I just don't understand what sticky bans are..

[ThesoldierLLJK]

People use VPN's to bypass bans in order to grief or cause trouble on the server.
Therefore if you use a VPN you may get caught in a large sticky ban and staff will have to determine if you're the person trying to avoid the ban.

It's suggested not to use VPNs at all on our server for this reason.

Ah, got it, I'm stupid.
Thanks for explaining.

Not trying to sound or be rude, but, I have a feeling that my appeal is forgotten. What I mean by that is, I feel like it's lost in the forums, no longer able to be seen.

As I said before, admins cannot do anything about sticky related bans.

[Waseemq1235]

Didn't expect it to take more than a week, but I guess I'll be patient, thanks for the reply.

[Emerald Blood]

You were in three bans. I made an exception for the ckey Waseemq1235 so it should be good now. In the event you can't log in after 24 hours, contact me or another staff. Resolved.
