sua yai Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 Excuse me if this has been posted before, but recently - over the past couple of months - I will occasionally have a message "sorry, you are not permitted to use this forum board". It maybe happens once a week and I'm always on again the next day. In fact, this morning was a usual example of receiving the message around 10am and obviously I'm logged on again at 3pmish. Can you explain why this happens? First time thought I might have been banned. Couldn't understand why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 It could be one of a few things: 1. You might have been banned, but then you would have been notified. 2. Your IP (internet address) was banned due to another user being banned while using it. This could be the case if you are using the same internet cafe as they were. 3. If you are on dialup, you may have been assigned the IP address of someone who was/is banned but that would be a longshot as there are many IP addresses and not alot of banning going on. Where are you accessing us from? cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 I've just had it happen to me, quite a few times over the last week or so. Never used to happen, but lately it's been quite often. All 3 browsers - Firefox, Mozilla, and Konqueror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 You've both had other members registered at the same IP address as the one you're using so I'd guess that #2 was the answer. If you are at an internet cafe and find yourself banned, but without an explanation, try the cafe next door and you'll probably be ok. many of these places load a ton of machines onto one IP.

sua yai Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 I'm accessing from my own computer. As I said, 90% of the time evrything's OK, as it is this morning. I had more of the same trouble yesterday evening. Don't know if it's anything to do with it, but I changed browser from IE to Firefox a while ago. I don't seem to remember getting this message with IE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this a problem at your end that is now resolved Yep, and as Huski stated, its been fixed so you shouldn't have to worry now. Unless you plan on being very naughty in the future. cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't seem to matter which I'm on - sometimes I can log on to TV, sometimes not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
