    So the place where I live recently got new internet. This new provider seems to provide us with an allocated IP address. I'm not really sure how it works, but one of the consequences I noticed was that I'm not even able to vote anymore because the IP address is located in a completely different city. So Gtop100 thinks I'm using a VPN :/ Since there's little I can do about it I'm worried that I'll get banned once I log in. I want to check beforehand, so that's why I would like someone to check if this IP address is clear.

    Gtop100's filter is different from Royal's though

    You would need to contact Gtop100 if your IP address is suspected to be a VPN

    That's true, but I realized that I can still vote using my phone lol. It's just a bit inconvenient but I can deal with that.
    Our new ISP is a relatively new company that I hadn't even heard of before. I asked on other forums as well because I don't really know how this stuff works, and they told me that they may have bought a batch of IP addresses from an old VPN service for example. If that's the case there's a small chance the IP address was used by a hacker on Royals which will get me banned as well. Since I've seen how strict they are with stuff like this I want to make sure before I log in.
