Banned??

snow white · 08-25-2013, 05:42 AM

Hi there!

Could someone please tell me why my IP address was inexplicably banned for the last few days? I did contact admin but got no reply. Then when I tried to log in today everything was back to normal, still with no explanation....??? I was a bit miffed because I knew I hadn't done anything to warrant being banned, lol!

Please explain, thanks!

Very best wishes,
Snow x

Snow White-

First of all, these threads are not monitored 24 hours a day so please understand that posting something at 6:42central when most of the Admin team are asleep generally means we won't see your post for several hours.

Secondly, do you happen to have a screen shot of the error you received? I viewed the ip addresses that we have logged for you and don't see any that would be on our banned list.

The only time ip's are banned around here is in the following circumstances:

* The user themselves has done something to warrant being banned from the community (denoted with a note in their profile, a message to their account, and an email to the address they used to register.

* If the user has created multiple screen names (and generally will also receive a note from us telling the user to pick one in order to keep participating unless in the above situation)

* The most common reason - The user attempted to access this site with a masked ip using an anonymous proxy server. (We have a long list of banned anonymizer servers)

I don't show any record in the back end of your username being banned by anyone on the Admin team so I am assuming your IP address showed up on the proxy list.

Thanks

Hi Medusa,

Many thanks for your reply! : )

I sent an email to admin at the time I was "banned" which was several days ago and received no response, so apologies if I was a little impatient tonight - I was already feeling ignored : (

I'm glad to discover that I have not fallen foul of any of the rules and regs here either by being rude or intolerant etc., or by changing my username, so yay : )

As for the reason why...well I guess it must have been a technical hitch and, being a technophobe myself I have no idea why my computer misbehaved, so I guess it's no one's fault! : )

All the best,
Snow x
