I believe VPN won't work on minecraft servers besides changing your IP.
Thats what I want, I would like to not be spotted for logging in with too many Minecraft Accounts.Quote:

Would that work? :)
Yes, that's what VPN's do. It should work.Quote:

But hackers use proxys to bounce their connection around, usually across different states or countries, as to hide their true location.
A VPN is just as the name suggests. A private network, usually facilitated by some software, that links computers together as though they are part of the same local network (LAN) even if they are actually spread out across the world. So in order for someone to use a VPN to join a server, that server would have to be a part of the VPN.
Now, you can use a VPN to connect to a proxy server to join a Minecraft server, but that is just confusing things for no good reason."
I found this quote while researching :P
Well thats pretty much what it does lolQuote:

Thanks a lot guys, thinking about @makeithurt123 and @kakuke1 for the positive answer.
I'll give you both a little tip when I get my first payout! :)
@MiracleRekt I cannot give you the reward as first answerer, as if what you're saying is true, I won't be able to do the method, but if the others are right I will.
Hope you understand that.
@Jim Morrison close this thread it has been solved! :)
This has been solved.
