Just a suggestion, you probably shouldn't continue to try and use this account as per normal without confirmation from the staff. As previously stated, it may be counted as Ban Evasion and may hinder progress on getting your account back significantly.
While your ban does seem to be a special circumstance, it's still better to be safe than sorry.
The "JonnySmithers" account or this account?
any and all accounts that you control. a ban on this forum isnt a ban on that specific account, but more or less a ban against the person.
