Okay it all started when I got a phone call from a friend who I have not talked to in years, while I was conversing with my friend my little brother, (age 16) logged in and started mayhem........When I logged in I got a message that read the following "This computer can not be accessable." So...Am I screwed? Or should I change my ip adress? Or format my computer? Or do I have to buy A WHOLE NEW COMPUTER?????
Also, I know the accounts are not banned because when I play the game on the SAME router, but on a diff computer, it WORKS, so they literally banned that computer that I was playing on....Now you would think I would just play on that diff computer, but it rus at like what? 2 FPS, 5 FPS? =(
P.S. I am typing on this new account because my other accounts glitch up whenever I log in on the forums with my vet accounts.

You are at fault for creating an opportunity for a minor to access your account, which, last I checked, is a violation of the ToS (Terms of Service). You will need to purchase a new computer. A very, very expensive one.

Whatever is afflicting you, you deserve it for using all those asterisks.

Ironic that your name is JohnLennon, and the title of your thread is Help...

From: JohnLennon Pitts no, as in masturbating and jizzing on people's faces, etc.  There are places where they pay good money for him to do that! He certainly blew an opportunity there! Seriously, people have done worse breaking the TOS without getting the boot. It's more of a 3 strikes and your out thing unless you've done something major like bring down the grid. So, perhaps this wasn't your first offense? It is against the TOS to allow someone to use your account and it is your responsibilty to ensure that a minor does not access the grid... Ha! Okay, I can't continue this line of thought and keep a straight face. Nevermind.

Perhaps he needs somebody, and not just anybody? *Braces for impending rotten tomato bombardment...* But yes, the TOS makes it very clear that nobody other than the account holder should be using an account. Not trying to be harsh, but ultimately, this mess technically is your fault, JohnLennon. If you feel that there has been an error, I would suggest contacting Linden Labs directly.

Contact [email]support@LindenLab.com[/email] - apologize for the misunderstanding, and say it won't happen again and they'll probably unlock you. Also, include your IP and MAC address for your ethernet card (Start, Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt, then type "ipconfig /all" and hit enter).
Good luck!

Mmmmhmmmm. You think we should introduce him to that newb who was starting all the threads the other night? The one who wanted Beatles avies, especially one of John Lennnon, and provided a history lesson on John.

Yet another claim of "I have a 'get out of jail free' sibling".
Just one of these times, when some asscaptain gets in trouble for being a fuckensmith on SL, I'd like to see him blame it on his uncle, or maybe his mom.

Perhaps they could all live together, in a yellow submarine, of course.

Well, he does have one thing working in his favor... Maxwell's silver hammer hasn't come down upon his head.

OKAY, ENOUGH WITH THE BEATLES REFERENCES! LOL. Okay but really guys, so I understand that in the TOS it says somewhere that anything that happens in my account, would be MY FAULT. But uh....Think if I explain myself, they would "give in" to my petty? ANd if that does not work people, would there be a way to "get around" the block

(face_mischief) So let's see... First, your story is barely believable and one we've all heard before. Second, it doesn't exactly follow LL's usual pattern to ban someone for one offense like the one you described. They tend to let AR's for things like that build up a bit before kicking someone out. So this is probably more like a history of offenses. Third, instead of working with LL and asking for help in resolving the issue, you're here asking people for help in bypassing the system. Granted there is the slim chance you're innocent, but you don't really think anyone is going to give you a step by step for sneaking back in do you? If you are innocent, then work with LL to fix it, pretty much your only _correct_ option.
