    I'm confused!

    I singed up here less than a week ago,

    I had a good half day here, then I seem to have gotten IP banned.

    I try to log on now, and I am successful. I see I have a warning for profanity, and it is not even an infraction. What is going on?

    Thanks,

    Kess

    If you are using a proxy IP from overseas the system can ID it associated with a spamming account and it can get banned.

    Suggestion would be not to use proxy IPs

    Ah, thank you. I was indeed using a VPN in Ukraine.

    Not from you guys, just the questionable websites I visit from time to time.
