Alright, so recently the server decided to ban some IP addresses, for really no reason. I emailed stan (which is how I am back on now) and he fixed it, and then he said he fixed a whole bunch of other randomly banned/blocked users. So for those of you that have used a proxy for the past little bit, try using your regular IP and see if it works.

If it still doesn't work, let me know your IP address and I'll let Stan know so he can manually and individually fix it.

Hope your holidays have all been good.

Just incase Dan can't still get on his is blocked

Servers don't just randomly block people. Either the server was hacked or stan did it himself.

As I said, servers don't do things on their own without a human input.

Yeah and if you think properly it was probers a hacker, stan can't monitor it all the time, he has a life you know! And fyi dont try picking on Court she dont take no crap

love u court :P

Well, if you want to know the technical stuff, I can tell you what stan told me last time it happened.

The site was having problems, people probably tried to get on and when they couldn't, they tried again and again, the server identified those IPs as hackers, even though they weren't, and then they couldn't get on.

Ok, I talked with Stefan (The Half-Blood Prince) on MSN, and he cannot connect to the site. He told me to pass his words through me So here we go.

Stefan: First of all to that user that wrote that the server cannot ban you on it's own, when you log on the forums, in some way you edit the site yourself, reply,pm etc, the server defenses by some mistake see you as hacker and they block you, this must be fixed, as more members will be blocked, and i am blocked from this forums, so someone please unblock my IP.
