Avoid Unreasonable Bans

Users are forbidden from using Epic Games' services, including Fortnite, “for any purpose that is illegal or beyond the scope of the services’ intended use (in Epic’s sole judgment)”, according to the firm's terms of service. Many players have reported their IPs being banned for using various types of hacks, such as an AutoHotKey, and receiving the following message: "You were removed from the match due to your IP, VPN, machine, or cheating. People recommend not utilizing VPN or proxy services while attempting to play Fortnite".

While some games have anti-cheat software, Fortnite prefers to simply ban anyone it suspects of cheating. Fortunately, there is a technique to get around this restriction. Fortnite users may use a VPN to log in under a new IP address and create a new account to go along with it, bypassing any bans on their own home IP. Of course, to play Fortnite, you'll need a super-fast connection and limitless bandwidth, which the best VPNs can provide.
