Author Topic: Am I banned or not.  (Read 2047 times)

I'm messing around on the forums (on my phone) and it randomly says I'm banned for spamming. A couple minutes later, it goes away, then it comes back in a couple minutes. I don't understand.

phones double and triple post all the time.
maybe the forum just was trying to prevent you from doing it.

this happened to me a Few weeks ago, with the message Being a richard, yet I hadn't actually done anything. less than a minute later, it was gone, so blame it on Badspots lack of hand-eye coordination in placing bans.

It's called having dynamic IP and a trippy router/internet. You get other people's IP bans.

No, its a stereotype. Mario is an italian stereotype so its somewhat of a joke.

Somewhat?
Are you implying it's partly serious?

It depends on how you take it, people are getting oversensative over racial and religion bashing.

Cellphones funnel all web requests through a small number of proxy servers, so you are likely to encounter the bans of other people.  

Basically, internet access on cellphones is a huge hack.  Recently there was a bit of a scandal where AT&T did something that caused you to log into someone else's facebook page when you tried to log in to yours. 

Solution: use a computer.

I know what you mean.
Often, at my school, you just describe somebody as "black", and suddenly you're being tribal.

I blame kids watching too many citizenship films.

I don't really care about your avatar, or racism in general, I just wanted to post that gif, hehe.
