i have not been able to read the board, log in or in fact get past the screen that tells me my IP has been blocked since early this morning. well, yesterday, technically.

i have no idea if this has anything to do wth my having been asked to moderate, my computer, or some unknown something.

if possible, could someone please email me with whats going on? failing that, i will be on AIM as dalaidahmer later. i will be unable to check this thread after i leave this terminal, which will be in a couple of minutes.

much obliged.

i should perhaps add that i have just fixed the email link in my profile...
it was an old address before.

Aye, I am at work now, but as of last night my home IP addy was also blocked, and I have no idea why...

The FAQ has a section on this. If this happens you should email Tom Coates who will hopefully sort it out for you.

Yup, read the FAQ and emailed Tom last night, just flagging it up here as an issue in case it is a more widespread problem.

Grrr. This again is a problem with Cal updating the board from an old version. He's accidentally overwritten a file that details what IP addresses are good and bad. It's a pain, and I'll look into it straight away.

i'm back in, thank you tom.

i should maybe point out that the faq section is not that handy when you can't get in, but that the error message says to email tom anyway.

Am back, many thanks for sorting this out, much appreciated!

I know that the block on nonmembers reading the board is a temporarly measure, but perhaps it would be possible to exempt the wiki, making it readable to everyone?

They shouldn't have any trouble getting into the Wiki at the moment.
