[LEGACY] Uncle Gerald - Playing with brother = ban evasion?

Byond account and character name: Uncle Gerald playing as Gerald Whitaker
Banning admin: LEGACY
Ban type (What are you banned from?): /tg/ Station Bagil
Ban reason and length: Ban Evasion, I don't know
Time ban was placed (including time zone): around 2pm 20/03/2016 GMT+2
Your side of the story: I was showing SS13 to my brother and as we both live at home we share an I.P. I asked an admin if it was okay to show him the ropes in Cargo and he said it was (I don't remember his name though). After the game concluded I forgot to ask the admin if it was okay for us to continue playing on the same server which was foolish but as I was the chaplain and he was a cook we weren't talking to each other or anything. I realize things would have been bad if we were in a position to collude and I'd understand if the ban reason was that. But neither I nor my brother were banned for that, it was "Ban Evasion". I've only started playing this yesterday so I have no idea where that comes from.
Why you think you should be unbanned: I realize the error I made in trying to play with my brother and won't be repeating it. I also don't understand what I did that could be counted as ban evasion as the two of us were playing simultaneously.

Stickybans went rogue and I came on a bit too late and so messed up a few legacy stickybans. I apologize for this, I should have been more careful in disarming the stickybans. Fixed for now.

Thanks for the heads up. I've been loving SS13 so far, didn't want it to end before I got a chance to learn how to mine!

Yeah I can confirm I gave him a go ahead. And stickyban is a bitch sometimes.
