That's really bizarre. I wonder how they did that. So a different computer on a different network with a different email address and everything would still get you banned for ban evasion?
Really creepy too, obviously they're keeping a lot of data on you to be able to be that thorough.
Notably, computers that I'd previously used to log in to my banned account. I strongly suspect that if I'd used my wife's laptop to log in to my banned account, then she would have seen her account banned as well for 'ban evasion'.
