[Ivanissaccs] Identikit - metacomms ban

Byond account and character name: Identikit; Hoops McCann
Banning admin: Ivanissaccs
Ban type (What are you banned from?): Permaban
Ban reason and length: Metacomms group JammanL + Auldrin. Simultaneous log ins to the same job, wordless cooperation. Both parties ignored ahelps and continued to play when asked about the previous circumstances
Time ban was placed (including time zone):2019-03-04, 13:09:36 EST
Server you were playing when banned (Sybil or Bagil): Terry
Your side of the story: I don't even know what happened, i've never logged into Terry since its an EU server and i don't live in the EU, so im assuming someone was spoofing my IP address or whatever identifier is used to differentiate players. I've attempted to log into Sybil before a while ago and i received a warning saying theres someone else on the server with the same IP address, and to leave before a ban or something along the lines of that, meaning this person must've been doing this for a while now.
I've never engaged in metacomms, and i don't know who Jammanl or Auldrin is, nor do i play on Terry.
Why you think you should be unbanned: This ban was made on me by mistake, which it was made directed at "Jammanl" and his/her gang of metacomm buddies.

That's not how it works, you can't spoof IP addresses like that. Also you get that warning when you have the same cid.

he could be playing in a shared NAT environment, that's often quite common on mobile broadband connections

I've looked into this further, it's indeed a cid match. There's 23 accounts tied to that cid, are you using pirated windows by any chance?

Unfortunately due to a mistake on our part the ban reapplied, it should be fixed again now. You share a CID with 24 other ckeys, so you might have similiar issue again here or on other servers in the future, please inform us if this happens! Feel free to link this thread in future appeals should this happen.
