It's sad when I have to repeat myself because people don't read the whole story.
My account is VERIFIED, with my GERMAN ADDRESS. So stake is well aware who I am and I don't hide anything. They even advise people to use VPN if you are geo restricted, Eddie said that several times on stream.
I think I will change my address with stake at some point soon, but only if it's not too much work.

Every user from Germany now uses VPN, since some months you cant log in from a German IP anymore. And stake knows they have hundreds if not thousands of players from Germany. None of those players gets banned but they are all online and active (as you can see in German chat on stake).

I'm sorry to make you repeat but quotes were snipped and I haven't checked all of them.
Yes, you are right, you can't access 99% of casinos from Germany but that's really strange if Stake advices people to use VPN because their ToS says otherwise, it's written on Stake.com:

Quote

14.4 The attempt to manipulate your real location through the use of VPN, proxy, or similar services or through the provision of incorrect or misleading information about your place of residence, with the intent to circumvent geo-blocking or jurisdiction restrictions, constitutes a breach of Clause 5 of this Terms of Service.

But there is the question, Stake tells me it's okay to abuse their Terms in this case but what if I win a lot and try to withdraw and then they'll tell me that I abuse their Terms and they won't let me to withdraw? I want it to be clear.

Yesterday I actually spoke to my VIP host getting some answers.
I told her I am living abroad and if possible want to change my address to avoid possible future complication because of Germany being on the restricted region list.

She told me, no need to worry, it's all good. If I want to update the address I could but at the moment there is no need for that. Apparently being from Germany, even though the TOS state otherwise, is no problem.

Kind of strange but if the support says so...

@AHOYBRAUSE could you attach an screenshot for all because this would help all German user’s who’re using VPN and I hope someone from team Stake can clarify their stand here on this. Lastly this is a baffling situation because casinos don’t usually allow this and Stake is violating their own rule but till user’s who use VPN get paid it won’t be a big issue however when Stake doesn’t pay citing VPN use it’ll be a big issue.
