Unban request for GarethEgglestone (Unban Request Granted by Pipa)

[SO•Gaz]

● Your LFS Username: GarethEgglestone

● Time & Date of Incident: No idea.

● Replay / Screenshot Link: None.
● Replay Timestamps: None.

● Reasons as to why you feel you deserve an unban: I tried to go on your servers the other day and apparently I'm banned for "Account Fraud" even though I have never went on your server myself. I am quite confused at this.

Hopefully someone can help me with this...

Thanks in advance.

The admin who placed the original ban has been notified and will reply shortly

The ban is not automatic and has been issued manually. Please be patient until the responsible admin replies.

Hello, I recently asked a friend of mine about a potential reason for my ban, and he told me that you operate a fraud protection system with automatic bans, which I was unaware of.
Anyway, it's been quite a while now. I would like to know if there is any news regarding my case. Perhaps this has something to do with my travelling... I have emails from LFS when I logged into places that were not my home country.

That is correct, however in this case there were a lot of different ip changes so one of our admins issued a manual ban to get this sorted out.

Our system has not seen location changes to greece nor netherlands, but all of them are from tunisia. Do you know why that is?

[SO•Gaz]

I have absolutely no idea. Quite a while back, there was someone using a Tunisia based VPN that accessed my Google account and for a while on LFS it said that my "username is online" and about a day later I couldn't log in to either... I have since then though, changed my passwords on Google (and added 2 step verification) as well as LFS (both WEB and GAME). Maybe it was something to do with this? Hopefully we can sort this out soon...

No... Can you not tell from the way it is written? Also, I've never even went on this forum until the day I started this thread.

Just making sure. You can now join again, happy cruising.
