Well that rules out (most) of the malicious possibilities. What we're left with is probably either Hanlon's razer, or something you commented about spez.
If it's the latter, the four accounts I nuked are still alive.
Sadly, it wasn't the later. I never mentioned spez and didn't even know what the CEO's name or username was until the blackouts (i.e. after i got permabanned).
VPN? They have this half-baked user "reliability" rating system that they claim "identifies known alts".
Which is marketingspeak for "we log ips," I think. If they did that as poorly as everything else, it's possible they think you're the last guy to use that vpn before you.
Also.. sorry for grilling you. Just curious.
Never used VPN, had a couple of active throwaways and those were not caught either. Oddly the message is "all your accounts" as in plural but it was only the one account.
Thanks again.
Guess we're back to Hanlon. Probably a buggy, hastily written script by a jr dev, or worse.. they're doing this manually based on a spreadsheet tracker.
