- Have fun.
I know about it but I don't want to risk a ban.
Unless something has change a ban is very unlikely - I used to use it all the time over the course of a year or two.
In any case you could always create a new account under a different email address to play. If you don't get banned in a year, you're probably fine.
Also people usually report if they get banned, and the Devs do what they can to trace it. I vaguely remember that the last time.i looked there was a note of "no reported bans in over a year"
It's still too risky for me. Unlikely doesn't mean impossible and I'd rather not deal with that stress.
