@Retrochewy whats VPN
Virtual Private Network is one of a few ways that you can reroute your internet traffic.

Mojang has banned VPN's for unkown reasons. if you log in with one it will log you out and in some cases changes your password. so if you don't have your login details to get your account back, i do not suggest you use a VPN
I don't think you are correct. I don't want anyone to be discouraged from making improvements to their privacy/security, because they think they will loose their account. Off the top of my head here are some things you would want to keep in mind about a VPN:
- Free VPNs most likely sell your information to advertisers, which may not meet your privacy needs.
- If you use a shady VPN provider you may be exposing yourself to a man in the middle attack.
- If you use a VPN you may end up using an IP address that has previously been used by an IP banned player. That could include people banned on the server as well as the voting websites.
Assuming you get VPN service from a reputable source, you should not have any issues beyond a slight additional lag.
