Banned for no Reason :c

TaeChasJujeonja

Hello!
so as you may know (or not) I was banned because I was "supposedly" an alt for someone named GeorgeTheFatCat. I am not :P and I posted an appeal. I hope you understand that I am not an alt. Im just TTae c:

Sincerely
-TTae

(Btw this is not an appeal)

I just hope you know that alts are found via IP address so it is either you or someone in the same household as you and either way its illegal

The person who is "GeorgeTheFatCat" has been to my household before, and has been on my wifi (and pretty much everything else) but used their own computer with their own account. I haven't even been on meep for quite a while.
So I don't frankly know why this is happening to me but I just have to figure this out. (BTW I know its illegal)
Do you think that this person could be using my account via hacked IP?

No one has hacked your IP, your friend played on your Internet. Your IPs match because of it.

Alright... so If he used my IP, then he could personally change his so that if he uses an alt or something, he could use my IP?

That's literally not a thing. it is based off of login and logout location.

AlrightIm just really confused. -.- I literally did nothing wrong, but alright..

Sometimes this happens: I'm going to assume that you're telling the truth since I've got no way to check.

My assumption is that a staff member did /getalts or /ipcheck when GeorgeTheFatCat was banned. This command brings up a list of players that have used the same ip; it's supposed to speed up the ip check process but it's definitely prone to error.

Staff will want you both on discord to prove you're two different people. That is flawed as well for many reasons but mostly because it relies on a banned person to be actually willing and able to help you out.

My memory is a little fuzzy but there should be a better way for staff to check. They can do a prism lookup for your log ins [/pr l a: player-join p:TTae,George r:global t:whatever] and that should show the exact ips that each of you log in with. If you're both consistently on different ips then it should be proof enough to unban you. They can also do /pr l a: player-join k: (TTae's ip) p:George r:global t:whatever to see how often George is using your ip address. If it has only happened once or twice it seems unlikely to be your alt.

Since I can't post on your appeal I'll just tag @Flamedemond2

Again my memory might be wrong but hopefully if you're innocent we can get it cleared up without relying on George.

Thanks Deljikho

that already exists in a similar mmethod to what you said

TaeChasJujeonja

But do you think it'll work and have enough proof? or will I still have to get on discord with George?

Yeah I don't remember everything since I was staff over a year and a half ago. But I just really don't like having to rely on a banned player to get an innocent person unbanned. Either way staff should be able to find his actual ip address and do some research on their end to see if a mistake was made. If you know a better way I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to write it down just in case.

We do check the exact ip with prism, and they do match up exactly. I or another staff member will be talk to the player on discord at the earliest available time, as posted on the appeal.
