VM account locked.

[jonascalhoun]

So I decided to try out FAF. I've been running FA in a Parallels VM for several years on my old Core 2 Duo Mac, runs like a champ (it slows down a bit on large battles, but nothing too bad). My new Retina MBP runs it under Parallels even faster. But then I tried to install it, and get my account locked. It'd be nice if there was a warning or something...

Lame. Unlock my account, please. It's gonna be a while before I can try again, and probably won't...but I'd rather not have to go through the unlocking process again. Username is the same as the forum.

Thanks,
Dan

You are not allowed to run FAF on a VM. I will remove the ban, but you will be banned again if you try running it from a VM.

I got this problem to. Didn't know you couldn't play it on a VM until it banned me.
Well, I will play on an other computer then. Could you please remove my ban too?

Sure. The ban is not here to punish you but to avoid people trying to exploit a VM to create many accounts.

It sounds restrictive and stupid. Sadly I had to protect FAF against abusers, and I agree it's stupid to do that. But what can I do..
