Hello there,
I just found out that I and my friend (neighbor) got pernamently banned for, as the GM Gorlak claims, duallogging. My friend says that he told to Gorlak that we have one shared ip for whole building, and that we're behind router, but the only thing he said is "hmm", or something like that, and then he gave us permaban, without asking him any questions.
As I'm aware, we're not the only guys in this building who are playing FOnline, his father is playing the game too, and there's also one other guy, which I don't know him personally, but it's possible that there are more than 2 people playing at same time, using that IP address.
Anyway, I personally don't care about that ban, since I'm not playing more than 3 weeks in total, and I only wanted to test this game, mainly because of inspiration. I'm developing similar game by myself, called OpenArcanum.
Actually, I should thank you, since I became a bit addicted to that, so that ban is a perfect cure for it :) My friend isn't and won't be that happy though, but he'll get over it as well, I guess. But I won't even try to guess the reaction of the other guys, don't know if they got banned too or not.
Goodbye.
Sorry for bad english.

I believe you can +requesthelp some GM and ask for a simple test which demonstrates you are two guys using two computers.

Gorlak actually should test it before banned them

1 IP for a single building?
May The Lag be with you!!!
-
1 IP for a single building is possible, they just need a good connection. Unlike its not some campus like house, it's still rare to have such setup.
There is an address for GM issues such as yours and your friend/neighbours called overseer@fonline2238.net

Gorlak still doing fine job. Long live Gorlak.

Gorlak overzealous. Nuff said.

This is absolutely nothing.
This forum is banned for me, my 4 usual internet providers are banned (my flat, summer house, parents flat and mobile provider), so if i want to read this forum, i have to cross borders from Czech republic to Poland and connect to free wifi there.

Bob does a good job, but we are all just humans, mistakes can happen. If your story is true ( I doubt it's not), follow this advice http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=8618.0 and send the overseer a message. I am sure the issue will be solved and even if you won't play anymore (I'm very interested in your OpenArcanum project btw) all the other players using the same IP can continue.
Any questions about GMs activity should be asked using overseer2238@gmail.com. The person operating this email (call him/her The Overseer) has access to all logs containing GM activity (logs are also more detailed now). He/she has been chosen from outside the GM team and his/her identity will remain unknown to anyone but the developers team. This email is now the only proper place for objections and inquiries concerning GMs.
