Hi all!

I recently tried to connect to the KR server and saw I was banned. I don't exactly play often (once every weeks) and when I do, I don't really make trouble or anything, but I also don't really chat much which may have contributed to a misunderstanding a two (people always ask who I am even though I installed this game a year and a half ago lol).

I don't really know how banning works at KR, but if it means anything, the apartment I'm at has wifi for the whole building and it's the same one for everyone. I know of one person who plays this game at the apartment building (who actually showed me the game when we were friends) but 1. I don't know if he still plays 2. Whenever we did play, he was never really causing much trouble, more of just dueling. I say that to say that I don't think he's the reason I got banned, but I'm also mostly sure it wasn't me (but I'm sorry if I did anything to bother anyone! Please do let me know what it was and I'll stop doing whatever it was that bothered.

Like I said, I don't play much, but when I do play, I only really play on KR, so I would never want to do anything to jeopardize my time on there lol.

Thanks again all! :D :D :D

Try reconnecting if you haven't already.
Sometimes IPs within certain ranges get banned because of other people.
If you truly didn't do anything, Jawfin is usually pretty good about catching and fixing those insta-bans, especially when they make a forum account.

If you're still getting an error, I imagine you'll see another post soonish!

What name were you playing with? The only "rizzy" that has been on KR was 5 years ago, and that connection is not banned.
Specifically the name you connected with when the ban hit is the identifying parameter.
Thanks!

Full transparency, I'm not sure. I hardly ever play with anything other than Padawan, or padawan with an
exclamation point if servers require names. I would assume it's Padawan?

Also not sure if that is an issue, one of the KR people told me to rename once but I thought I didn't have to because I thought it was allowed, but I renamed anyway, but maybe that's what got me the ban first. Sorry to whoever that person was (think it was Sizzler or a diff name).

There is no requirement for you have a name, Padawan is fine.

In the meantime I found the IP your using, and allow me to explain the confusion. You chose to use the name of a player that was currently on, being +TESA+
So that can lead to a little confusion, which was exasperated by then laming and flaming said person. I hope this helps with your full transparency: -

All we kindly ask is that you please have fun with the other players, and not at the expense of them.

Another minor aspect of our full transparency, now that we're on a roll, is that after the ban you then attempted to use a proxy to connect - not saying that is a wrong action, but I am saying it hardly engenders our trust!
