I've been playing here and there on your server for the past few weeks without any trouble but last night I tried logging in and I was banned immediately when entering the game. The only [KR] Person I saw online was Kaliko Kitty, but I don't know for sure if it was them as I was offered no explanation and banned after trying to get an explanation with a VPN before giving up.

I've not started any trouble and just play for fun here and there, and am mainly just curious as to why I was banned. If it has to do something with |WoWo| (Which has been dead for almost 8 years now) Thats extremely petty and I'd honestly just like to know whats going on.

If it can't be resolved, then oh well, if you'd prefer to admin abuse one of the last 100 players that actually plays this game and see that as a benefit, thats your call.

Just tried again and I was banned again. Is there some auto-ban feature I dont know about? I just started using a VPN for torrents but it wasn't even on this time. Is it that ?


Only KR person on this time was Mandalorian (First time i've seen either one of them)

As my name was mentioned I feel obligated to speak; Yeah, it was most definitely because of your VPN if you just started using it. We have this little auto ban thing that targets proxies like that so that people who get banned, stay banned. With you using a VPN, the server automatically targeted you for a ban.

A council member, most possibly Jawfin, will be able to unban you as soon as they can if it truly is a case of simply VPN use, as long as you aren't banned for any other reason.

Sorry for any inconvenience, but you could see the logic as to why the server banned you.

Ok thanks for the reply. That makes more sense!

I turned it off, and still got banned, so I don't know how to remedy that. I'm not using it to IP dodge, just using it for torrents like I said.

The firewall will trace your IP back - just because your "public" IP is a VPN, doesn't mean the packets don't get back to your actual IP. To prevent people who abuse the server the firewall will block the VPN and then the connector's IP.

All the IPs you used are:
179.43.133.140
179.43.147.45
179.43.147.5
179.43.147.59
179.43.147.38

There is no record of you using your actual IP. I suspect you didn't manage to disable zenmate.

I can also state your real IP has not been on the KR server since 2nd of February, 2017.
And, I can also state that IP is not banned.

Aw dang, then i'll have to find out! thanks

Yup yup
