Title: I've been banned need help
Post by: Jeremy.flaugh on January 01, 2015, 08:22:01 PM
I replied back to woodisgood1~at~yahoo.com for help but Im not sure where is goes.

So will ask here also.
I tried from another network / IP address and it lets me in thats how i'm posting this!
What happened and how can I prevent this I even tried my phone on LTE/3G and got the same message.

My current IP at home is 174.140.119.176

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask for help but I'm a little stuck.

"Attached is a screenshot of what i'm seeing it will not let me go anywhere I tried two browsers and clearing cache."
Okay I attempted to attach a screensot but got this message. The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator.


Thanks jeremy

Okay thank you.

Okay... it looks like you were "caught" in a IP Ban Trigger I set up to catch the SPAMmers.  Sorry for the problem but thank you for reporting it!

I have modified the trigger to allow your 174.140.119.176 IP address to log on.

Try it when you can and please post back in this thread when you are successful logging in from 174.140.119.176 (so that the moderators Sprinter, mlappin, and I know that my fix worked).

Thank you.  -Slopster

Crow - You were caught in a Ban Trigger I set up to block Spammers.  You should be able to login without problems now.

Please give it a try and post or PM to let me know if you could login successfully.

Thanks!  -Slopster

  Well after a lot of effort on Sloppy's part I am finally hooked back up with the wood burning gang. Have to put on a pot of coffee and get caught up, thanks again Slopster. ;)

No problem Crow.  The good news is that I learned how to undo a ban mistake using hostnames of servers.  I'm real good at learning but even better at making mistakes. LOL!!!!

I have not.  In fact, getting the site owner/administrator to even return a PM or e-mail is not happening.  :-[

PERHAPS if you posted the E-Mail address and we all sent an E-Mail to him / her then we could get some sort of response, sort of reversing spam, just a thought!

Don't want to antagonize the owner though, just a thought.
