What on earth? You're still free to enjoy your hobbies as you see fit. Just because someone out there makes a hustle out of it doesn't mean you have to.

We don't care about "ban evading" in the sense that anyone is welcome to make a new account as long as they play by the rules. But as you know you can't post like this.
