Title: Auto-Ban for Opera Mini?
Post by: Xer0 on August 18, 2013, 11:53:51 AM
I got a "you've been banned for spam" header yesterday night, while beeing able to access the forum normaly a hour earlier.

Sent a mail to the showed mail and only got a delivery failed back.

Now everything works again without dooing anything. could it be due to my changing ip? i use opera mini when browsing on phone or tablet, they have multiple compress proxies

Yes, surely because of the proxies that should be banned because of other people

It's most likely that someone used Opera Mini's proxy to spam here, and was IP-banned causing collateral damage.

Thanks for giving us a heads up on this one. I now know not to use the turbo in Opera.

Add this info to the 'banned for spam' message
