Vrarrdata 205 Share Posted March 28, 2017 So after 28-3-17's restart at 5 am gmt+1, I keep getting a message that I cannot join the server because I am using a VPN Funny thing is, I do not have a VPN. Things I tried: Restarting Minecraft. Restarting PC Restarting Router Releasing/Renewing IPConfig Reinstalling Minecraft Trying to connect to another router Restarted that router Completely reinstalled windows and formatted my SSD & HDD drives. (Last resort and don't worry, I made a back up of my files, aint st00pid.) please I need my premium RP [EDIT] I have no problem with connecting to other server's, LOTC is just doing /stuff/ [Second EDIT] It's really a network problem, I tried logging in on another account and I got kicked aswell [Third Edit] So I tried to fight fire with fire and set up a VPN. I tried to connect and it works! So... wtf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lirinya 4021 Share Posted March 28, 2017 #SaveFakhri On a serious note it screws up my buddy list and displays him as logging out before he even logs in!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lirinya 4021 Share Posted March 28, 2017 It's done this to him time, and time again. On different times of the day on different days completely. If it was a GM doing it they had to be very consistent and very diligent. Kicking happens instantly in terms of buddylist. As soon as he logs 'off' he logs 'in'. One of those "Please stop trying" situations when it floods your chat log. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ski_king3 0 Share Posted March 28, 2017 While I have no answers, I think disallowing VPNs is a bad thing. While they're obviously used for alting, a number of people use them for pretty legitimate reasons (like not being DDoSed). I hope this isn't a step the server is taking, as VPNs have uses outside the context of our server and catching people alting is, by and large, not that important.

Cat Evocation 3728 Share Posted March 28, 2017 from the looks of it, it might be some plugin that's borked if we even have one of those, because the only other related issue is someone on some other server having the same exact error and the server owner said it was a plugin the server was using.

Lirinya 4021 Share Posted March 28, 2017 It's weird how it would kick in so suddenly, but a plug in issue makes sense. I'm not sure how long he had been online prior to the issue; we'd been rping at least 4 hours before the restart came, and then poof. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lirinya 4021 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I do believe Teegah fixed it by removing an old plugin. Time will tell! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
