I am just wondering I dont know whether I need to send an IM to an administrator but it says my IP address has been banned from the forum but I have no erased threads and I havent seen any infractions in the box. The thing is when I was going to ask the adminstrator or moderator what I did I refreshed it and it allowed me onto the forum.

I feel bad if I posted something that offended someone. I would never intentionally offend anyone personally, a city or political idea yes but someone personally I would not offend personally.

I was wondering who if I should PM a moderator regarding this and which moderator I should PM, I would really wish to know what I did to disturb someone to the point that moderators felt like it was appropriate to take action on the situation.

You wouldn't be posting this if you were banned.

Sounds like the sight was just having a blonde moment or PMS .
A few times I have been signed in and a message said you must be signed in to post.Luckily that hasn't happened for about 6 months.

I was "banned" once, but they just got me mixed up with someone else...

Matt, you aren't banned. You couldn't post if you even had a two point infraction. If you had a ten point infraction, you couldn't even read here. I checked your profile and you have no active infractions so it was either something with your computer or a short glitch in the site.

If you are given an infraction, you would know it. The Mod giving the infraction sends you a PM stating WHY you received it. If that ever happens, you're free to send one PM asking the Mod if they could clarify what you said that caused the problem. If you don't feel you've been given a fair shake with the mod, you can send one PM to Yac or Markablue. And I'm only using the word "ONE" as an example because there have been people who have gotten an infraction who'll constantly send PMs to the mod and that is "calling out a mod" and it borders on harassment, IMHO.

It turns that one of the IPs you used was banned because of another user. I took it off the list, so you shouldn't see this message anymore.
