Your Warcraft III username: Badtown@useast
Realm/Gateway: Azeroth (USEast)
Why are you banned: dodging (it says)
Why you should be unbanned: Hello I am sorry for the trouble. Long time ENT player, I have been banned for a few minor offenses before but nothing major. It seems I am banned currently until September and I just can't figure out why. I looked up "am i banned" list, it leads me to a TID that I do not have authorization to view and the reasoning just simply states "dodging". I have some latency issues sometimes, so I am assuming it might be from a game I disconnected. However, I am just not sure. Hoping an admin can help shed light as to why I am banned so harshly for so long, and maybe what I can do in the future to avoid such a thing!

Are you using a VPN/Proxy?

No I do not usually use a VPN or a proxy, however I have recently set one up for another game (Player Unknown's Battleground's) as I was having connection issues with the game. I am using Cyberghost 6 (free) for that game.

There was an instance where I fired up warcraft 3 and tried to join an ENT LTD game with the VPN active and it auto-kicked me. I was not aware the VPN was on at the time so I quickly switched it off and returned to B.Net as normal.

Edit: I've realized certain other programs don't like the VPN either. I can't get ventrilo to work while it's active, however it is currently necessary for me to connect and play the other game (Player Unknown's BG) as it is still in early release alpha. (or whatever they call that racket these days)

Edit again: I'll list the troubleshooting guides that led me to setting up the VPN workaround for my connection issues in the other game. http://forums.playbattlegrounds.com/top ... ive-guide/ http://windowsreport.com/fix-playerunkn ... ds-issues/ Just to re-iterate WHY I am using this VPN for another program. I had no intention of using the VPN for connecting to Battle.net or ENT games. Just left it running, didn't think when I switched games. If the VPN was the reason for my ban, it will not happen again in the future.

There is no ban under your name, just on the VPN. Don't use the VPN and you won't have any problems. Shoot me a PM if you have further issues joining while not on the VPN
