The board was stating that I was IP banned

This afternoon, while trying to access the board, I got a message instead telling me that the IP address I was using had been banned. I works now though. I think I have also lost a bit of post count but I don't really care.

I guess this was some kind of bug. Anybody else experiencing this?

Yes I did too, I was so concerned that I tried masking my ip, still couldn't access it... tried a dial up connection (different IP I'm on Broadband) STILL IP banned, it's a odd one... maybe a mod was banning someone but the range of IP's they banned was so large it affected other forum members?

edit - I appear to be 150 posts down also

I just hopped on the scene, but there appears to have been some minor confusion by the mods -A lot of people's posts have disappeared, why I have no idea.

Well, I heard somebody tried to IP ban most, if not all, the French members, and the IP range was so big that it affected other European members as well... :rolleyes:

About post count, looks like it was disabled in the market forums... Personally, I would have disabled it in International and maybe even Unrelated (althought this could cause spam growing in the other forums...).

I don't really even post in Sales, and mine is down about 100 posts.

Oh well, not really all that big a deal.

Me too and this will be my second attempt to reach 1000 posts. I was oh so close last time. 970 posts was my post count before the change.
