| Can you post the problem IP address? Since this post works, you must have another one that doesn't. If you let me know what that is I can check the ban list.
Some of that stuff (most of it) is automated. Multiple failed logins automatically generate an IP ban. |

| That IP had a ban on it:
Date: 28 February 2014 23:09:11
Reason: Too many forum login failures
I've deleted the ban, and x'd out the address on your message for privacy.
Try again. |
