Got banned, but need some clarification

[reapers5]

Your Warcraft III username: reapers5
Realm/Gateway: useast.battle.net
Why are you banned: using ip changer on smurf account
Why you should be unbanned: Hi, I looked over the rules
1. "The use of any utility that hides your real IP (proxies/vpns, etc.)."

2. "Do not dodge your bans. Dodging is defined as playing on a different account while being banned on the so called 'main' account. Often caused by a (purposely triggered) change of the IP. Dodging is considered a major offensive equal to maphacking and is being treated as such."

I'm sorry I used ip changer on my smurf account, but that is because I wanted some anonymity when I was smurfing for my friends. As you can see, I never ever used any ip changer on my main account https://entgaming.net/openstats/dota/player/reapers5/ . And my main account is the only 1 I care about. I never used ip changer to dodge my bans, because I only focus on my main account (and I try to appeal when my main is banned from dc).

I was not aware there was a difference, I'm sorry I used ip changer on smurf account. I know it's wrong.

The rules above say dodging bans is treated equal to mh, but I never ever dodged a ban, so can you please give me the punishment of the first rule. It says they are two separate rules in the information guide. What is the ban length for using ip changer, but not dodging ban or using third party to gain an advantage? Aren't they 3 separate things?

@nabo. will answer you as soon as he is around.

Using vpn proxies and encouraging your clan to ban dodge and giving them instructions how to do so doesnt follow up with your "anonymity" story though?
There are more than one accounts that used vpn ips.
vpn proxy bans are 1 yr.

[reapers5]

Ok, I'll accept the 1 year ban, as my goal was to secure top 10.
But, when did I ban dodge? Will my stats on my main account be wiped, as that is what I'm most concerned about?

I'm not sure why you think I would use it to ban dodge because if you look at my reapers5 page, I've been playing continuously for the past few weeks and I smurf for friends when the games start to get stacked. Can you pinpoint where I used ip changer to ban dodge?

If I wanted to use ip changer for ban dodge, why would I play every day on my reapers5 account on my original ip?

There are more than one accounts that used vpn ips.

Yes, I admit to using ip changer on smurf accounts and I did b4.

vpn proxy bans are 1 yr.

On the rules page it says ban dodging is treated like mh, or 3rd party applications to gain an advantage, but can you specify when I dodged a ban with ip changer?

I didn't write that clan message... Why would I write it when I didn't need to dodge a ban since I haven't been banned for a day for months? Why would I write it when I never used it for ban dodge and I never needed to? It may have made more sense if I were banned for days or months and then wrote it, but just look at my reapers5 page https://entgaming.net/openstats/dota/player/reapers5/ I've been playing continuously for awhile. I wasn't even a clan shaman until I reached 2000 elo.

So, you did not write tat message on your clan board? How come im hearing that you did?

I'm not sure who would frame me, but I don't have that much authority in the clan.

[nabo.]

Any shaman can post a message?

[reapers5]

Any shaman can post a message?

Yes, any shaman or higher.

[nabo.]

I don't have that much authority in the clan.

But, you were a shaman?

[reapers5]

But, you were a shaman?

Yes, I was promoted to shaman like 3 weeks after joining.

[nabo.]

...So you were a shaman and had enough power to post that message...
If not you, who did then?
