an account normally and I was asked to pay some evil fee, I was confused at first because this was my first account so how the heck did I commit any evil?
Did you use a public WiFi IP address for that account registration?
so I proceeded to creating this one with my VPN turned on and it worked without any evil fee payment.
Using free VPN can cause the same evil IP problem because many people use a same free VPN like you.
You can submit for whitelisting
Remove Proxyban (evil fees) - email to get whitelisted for freeSo for me creating an account and then abadoning it because of the evil fee to create a new one is that considered as an Ban Evasion?
Evil IP is not an account ban. It does not cause a ban evasion.
25. Ban evasion (using or creating accounts while one of your accounts is banned) is not allowed.[e]
25. If you get banned (temporarily or permanently) and create a new account to continue posting / sending PMs, it's considered ban evasion. The only exception is creating a thread in Meta about your ban.
