.ao2 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Steam Account Name: ao2 Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:5275398 Alternate Accounts: STEAM_ Server Group: AIM Server: Retake Reason for Ban: [SourceSleuth] Duplicate account Admin that Punished You: Console ban Reason for Ban: [SourceSleuth] Duplicate account Why I should be unbanned / unmuted: I am not sure why I would receive a console ban for 'duplicate account' I only have one account, and no other accounts are active from this IP. I have not previously been banned from your servers for any reason. I understand that it has been a while since the ban came into effect I just assumed it would correct itself and tried to join again today to realise that the ban was still in effect. I would very much like to be able to play on your servers again I enjoy the retake modes a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedora Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Ban is an IP ban invoked when you connect under the same IP as another account which was previously banned for whatever reason. "Yassuo/Cheescake/Fedora/Sheriff" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.ao2 Posted February 21, 2020 Author Share Posted February 21, 2020 But there are no other accounts from this IP as i had stated earlier. I am the only one in the household with a steam account, which is why i am confused as why i got a ban for duplicate account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroViper Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Do you use a vpn of any sorts? - @ - - Discord: Ethannn#9937 - - Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/id/Retroviper/ - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aiko Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Yeah it probably was due to a VPN as it gives you a random IP that could have been banned by someone else who also used a VPN IP, You may have had one on without knowing and connected to the server. As a result you were banned for duplicate account. If you are to get an unban i would make sure you get rid of that VPN before you try to connect to anymore servers xD.

.ao2 Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 Yes i do have a VPN, however i am careful not to use it so I don't run into issues like this one. Perhaps i had left it running in the background when i connected and received this ban in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
