User blog:Dragonjet/Setup: Private VPN or Proxy

This guide is not yet complete.

Is it free?

 * Yes, for the first 12 months.
 * You will need to input your credit card (secured). No charges.

Who needs this

 * Those who are not satisfied with the speed of existing VPN or Proxies
 * Who wants an IP address of their own, no other kancolle player goes thru this IP

Is this a contributing factor to being banned?

 * In community terms, No. Everyone in the foreign community has been using VPNs and Proxies ever since, and it was never a suspect for ban
 * As of common knowledge, being a foreign player does not warrant a ban, you just can't get support from dev team if you get game problems
 * Literally, we cannot tell since only the devs know the criteria for bans
