Ive been banned?!?!

Well, not really but that is the error message I get sometimes.

It happens when Im on my phone and I hit new posts. About 3/4 of the time it will say that I've been banned and for no reason. Not sure what is going on but its pretty strange.

Could be that your phone shares an IP address with someone that had been IP banned.

Yep. Change your IP.

Apple sucks in the sense that it has rolling IP's. A friend was trying to get on the other night and he goes, "what the??? I've been banned from C5???" I had to explain to him too. Nope. An IP was banned because some DB felt is necessary to really be that much of a jerk...

You are fine.

You are fine.
Just a suggestion, banning by IP is always a risk if it is not a static IP. You can install AE detector from VB that works on cookies and not IP. If the user tries to re-register, the cookie will flag them and notify staff. It actually says "no soup for you" lol. And really, a proxy will get around an IP ban. There are ways around the AE detector, but most people think a ban is IP related.

Cool. I'll take that other info to Tran. Not sure what all he has installed, but I'll inform him. If it's something that can help us out by keeping the regular trolls out, then hey....I'm sure he'd be all for it!

I saw that a few days ago. Your PPD average is insane.

We have BS threads here where people just chat. That's mostly why.

Plus the post count is for this site and the Corvette forum that's linked to it.
