Permabanned from forums on my phones IP?

Post by Air Conditioner » Thu Jul 30, 2015 9:02 pm

whenever I go on GC-forever.com on my phone in told I'm permanently banned from the site due to my IP address. I don't have any messages or emails that have an explanation. What'd I do?

send me a PM with the IP address listed on your phone...that will provide information if it was a ban was from a spammer or previous banned member using the same address currently assigned to your phone

Phone networks typically share a single public IP between a large number of devices. Someone else on the same network/node probably did something naughty (do you live near the_randomizer?)

It seemed to have fixed itself. Sorry about that.

I've unbanned the IP but if dodgy behaviour comes up from it again, it's getting banned.
