    In the FAQ the 8th Q and A has info about using the trainer on different computers and being banned the last part of the answer says

    "if we see an excessive number of different computers attemtping to use them."

    I just subscribed to a VPN and I can sent my ip to change anywhere between every 5 mins to 24 hours. Would I be banned because my ip is set to change and the trainer may be reporting from UK one time I start it and Poland the next?

    I only ass because I was banned today from another forum because it thought I was hacked or lending out my account luckily I know the admin so he fixed my account. I figured I would ask as I do not want to lose this account.


    Thank you

    It might be possible, but they use more than your IP To know if you give out the trainers, tho I would set it to not change between less than 12 hours at a time, too many times might cause the system to automatically take action because it gets overloaded with IP's

    You may see an error message on the forums with a note specific about VPN usage. This does not result in your account being banned but your experience with the site may be very limited while signed into your VPN.

    Trainers may also fail authentication. If you do not wish to use your true IP address, you may want to consider using them while disconnected from the internet via offline authentication.

    I use VPN regularly, and i have asked the very same question some time ago, Pwiz said as long as you don't actually give the trainer to others you should be fine. I haven't had any problems either.
    Alternatively: use the Offline codes.
