This or someone is using his IP and posting also.

Buddy tell him to not freak out and just wait for 6 minutes. I have this limit too on my account too. The limit will get removed after 2-3 weeks of their presence here and will change to ~70 seconds.Title: Re: Help needed - a friend of mine is blocked from posting Post by: ripper234 on November 11, 2013, 06:33:29 PM My friend waited and he still can't post.
He also opened a brand new user, waited a long time ... and still can't post. And then he cleared his cookies. I think his IP might be permablocked. I'll ask him to try TOR just to make sure.

Title: Re: Help needed - a friend of mine is blocked from posting Post by: markjamrobin on November 11, 2013, 11:13:17 PM He has to wait, because that account is newish. At my rank, I can post every ~14 seconds :P

WTF? He finally managed with Tor Client & creating a new username. There might have been a bot posting from his IP once. The error messages he gets lie, his IP is permabanned without him knowing it. This is at least my explanation. theymos ... what's up with all that fortune you manage that is supposed to be used to develop the forum software? |
