Banned?

Post by HawaiiTromboneGuy »

Earlier this evening I received this message after logging in and trying to view the forum. Eventually after closing out all my browsers and logging in and out a handful of times, the message went away and all was back to normal. Anyone else see this as well or did I do something naughty? :amazed: :idk: :eek:

It’s almost certainly because someone has been spamming from an IP that you got cycled into. If this happens, Google: what is my ip and email me saying you’ve been banned for IP with that number and I can remove it no problem

I thought it meant I'd been added to a combo group. 😅

Now, where’s my notice?

I saw it earlier this week as well. A refresh greeted me with a CloudFlare error - don’t remember precisely what it was but made me think there might have been a brief issue with the server. Waited a bit, and was able to get back in.

I just tried to submit a new topic, but was banned when I clicked to post. The funny thing is, the topic was created anyway. Seems an odd way to treat spammers.
