I have had a different server on my cell phone than my computer and for a few years I have ocassionally looked at what goes on on Avcanada, not often but ocassioally.

Was bored today and decided to have a look.

I'll be God Dammed , my I.P site has been banned.

Why was it working and all of a sudden it has been banned, I never ever posted on that I.P .

Any one have any idea how they suddenly found it?

That's weird.

You might be able to reset your ip address with a simple modem reboot, unplug your router for a few minutes and then back in.

This might reset your IP address depending on some factors.

I logged in and showed an IP ban once, in my case I figured I was using wifi somewhere that someone had previously used when they were banned.

My IP was banned a cpl weeks ago and I tracked it to a block due to spam through a third party web site. I simply used a VPN to end run that but I noticed over the last few days the ban has disappeared. I did protest the block on the spam website, don't know if that had anything to do with it.
