    I'm in India for work and just got a message that my IP address was banned on my computer, so I'm on my iPad asking for reinstatement!

    It's funny you say that, because I work in IP (Intellectual Property) Law.

    I know for certain the people I work with weren't calling you, but I'll tell them to tell their friends.

    How did my IP Address get banned anyway? I hadn't even posted anything. Is someone constantly checking IP Addresses of computers accessing the site?

    Denny bans the IP addresses of those accounts that spam boner pills and high quality jerseys.

    Hmm... So someone in India is peddling on the side? I'll ask around. Do you want me to bring some back to the states?

    Do you notice much spam in the forum? "I made $6000 in one week, click on this link to find out how!" "Cheap oversea drugs, click here!" "Cheap high quality jerseys!"

    No I don't Sly. I guess you want a kiss. Smack!
    Now please answer the question, what offence got D-Rock banned? I am curious about such things as I use to get banned quite often when I used a provider where all users appeared to have the same IP address.

    D-Rock didn't do anything to get banned. He wasn't banned. He was trying to log in with an IP address that is on Banned IP List. One post and the problem was fixed.

    I don't want a kiss from you, I'm trying to explain why IP addresses get banned.

    IIRC we blanket banned IPs from Asia a while back. The ratio of legit to not legit registrations was like one to a million.

    >>> WTF? No sir, I have never felt victimized.

    Well, we are now back to scratch. We knew the IP address was Banned. The questions was how did it happen? I was hoping to see an answer

    Kcams!

    The NSA has asked us to start logging the IP addresses of all Trump supporters. We jumped the gun and started banning them.
