    You sure? Because he contacted me on twitter, and said he got permabanned, and doesn't know why.

    Because there's nothing in his profile about it.

    Do you have a link to the twitter post?

    Maybe it was a mistake or a glitch. IP addresses can get mixed up with each other is strange ways.

    I'll take it up with the upper brass and see if we can figure this out.

    So I just chatted with the boss and the way he sees it is, If he's claiming there's an IP ban and his account isn't banned, it's just that he just came across an IP or IP range that we have blocked (likely due to spammers). If he's got an alternative way to connect than he just did when he got blocked, he should try that. If it was a different source than he usually uses then he'll know to avoid that one.

    It's an odd situation but that's the best solutions we've got.

    Come to think of it, I have run into this similar issue (I just realized that) in the past several times. I can't believe I forgot about this. I'll relay this to Read. Thank you.

    In that case, I'm not really sure what to do except read up on how to change your IP Address or something unfortunately.

    Their are ways to work around this. If he wants some advice, let him know I know a thing or two about computers and I'm willing to help.

    I'll let him know.

    BTW, do you have a twitter account? If so I can send you a link to his profile so y'all can talk directly
