Rotghroth Rhapsody Sticky Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 This is kinda weird- I tried to log on about three hours ago and it gave me the message that I was not allowed to perform that function. The same message that you get when you are banned (as those of you who have had that "priv." can testify). So I created a new acount to try to ask what to do and that account was denied access as well. (Thats the newest "whathappened" account. But now about three hours later my account works fine. Any idea why it happened? I did not change any settings on my computer, so was I banned for some random reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Reality Corp. Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Even if you are banned, you can still login and read posts, just not reply or start topics. It was probably something amiss with the server/scripting process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Sticky Posted October 12, 2004 Author Share Posted October 12, 2004 You can not login- You can access the website which I could- I have been banned so I know what it does- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Rupert Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 If you're certain it was a ban, it would mean that it was an IP ban. It doesn't just ban one account, it bans your PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I think I remember it happened to Djur when he tried to wget the forums shortly before the purge. But I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody Sticky Posted October 12, 2004 Author Share Posted October 12, 2004 Yeah it would of had to have been an IP ban because neither my regular account or the temp account worked. And yeah I'm pretty certain that it was a ban becaused I when I try logging in to my banned account and I get the same message as I did yesterday. what does "wget" mean?

Unflappable Drayk Djur Revolutions Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 No, what happened to me was different -- Apache was refusing my connections. What's happened to m's devotee is a known bug, I think; didn't it happen to TGM once? The question is, is the "banned" account labeled as such? UBB is buggy as hell, so it's not unlikely that somehow the permissions got screwed up. And 'wget' is an HTTP/FTP fetching program; I was using it to mirror the SW forums.
