Because since April 2 I've been unable to connect to the site (timeout). At first I thought nothing of it since I saw numerous reports of the site being down, but just on a hunch I tried to connect over Tor, and... it works. So what's going on?

It's possible. We've recently been seeing many IPs that drain tons of bandwidth or perform requests very quickly, so we've started banning some of these. You shouldn't have been banned unless you were doing something very unusual, though.

PM me your IP.

Downtimes are regular for this forum but not that long, it really looks like your IP is blocked. are you using a proxy now and nothing about the account itself is limited?

Nothing related to the account, as I can use proxies
