EJ , sounds the same problem i have here , i have mailed one admin with no reply as yet , but seems its been selective and maybe only because we were online when glitch appeared Sunday a week back ... I had a funny feeling my account appears to be locked as well , pleased you posted Eli'jah

I can post a link to this thread in the Newshawk section at SOH if you wish? That might get some action.

Response so far from admin:



#2 Dangerousdave26

Admin
:2Yes something very strange happened to the site on Sunday.

I need to know what kind of response they are getting when they try and log on.

Yob's account has not been deleted its still there. He might be trying to log into the .net site he does not have an account there.

Can they view the site without logging in?

Ian has an account at the .net site www.sim-outhouse.net can he log in there?

There is probably not much more I can do today as it is the end of my day. They can post responses over there and I will check on them

Problem fix with a little communication , from SOH admin staff cool.gif

"The scripts on our server are designed to automatically block anyone who
tries to access the server too many times in a certain amount of time. If
they do that the scripts block the IP address.

Sometimes members computers go nuts and request hundreds of connections in a
short amount of time (usually Windows XP has that problem). This will cause
them to get blocked at the server level.

Your problem might have come as a result of that weird outage we had Sunday.
