Why would one's IP address be banned on this site?

Send a PM to Law. He’s always been helpful for me.

I saw those numerous spam threads and posts.. I'm curious. Why would someone spam this message board? What do they gain out of it? Seems silly and a waste of time. Any thoughts?

I know, I have had the same question. The BIGGER question is why the hell I'm grouped in with them and have a banned IP address. I didn't spam anything!

Maybe a group of people asked the admins to ban you?
Don't ask me why though, I have no idea why we, I mean, they would want to do that |

Regarding the subject, stop sharing your IP with a spammer. The simplest must be to stop using a compromised proxy server (see your network settings). |

Inadvertently, perhaps. Or what exactly do you mean?
To save a bit of "traffic", if you meant to ask how to try the suggested solution, the answer is: open your system's Internet settings, proceed to the active connection's properties and make sure the "use proxy server" checkbox(?) is off. Or proceed to your ISP's site to probably find a pictured guide of setting up your system's network usage. |

Well, your testing my wits (at first I thought you were asking the OP ) is all right, but you seem to be totally missing the point. I only offer you a chance to look at least basically educated. If you don't need it - just skip it, be my dearest guest, indeed. I don't feel like repeating anyway.
Actually, making a fool of yourself is what they call a joke around here. I just don't know your intention, sorry. And the last thing. When quoting, you should make sure it's exact (to show some respect for the source and the reader, if only needed, of course ). At first I thought it could be "Your meddling <has something to do> with powers...". You don't have to please me, really. |
