IP Blocked
When an IP address is going to be blocked is there any way the for forum can show it when you login to the forum? I was just blocked and did not fine out about until I wanted to summit a long post that I just did. I'm one of those who is slow at typing and it was a long post for me, which for some reason I lost over this.. My computer is normally running for months but lately I been trying things so have been rebooting.

"blocked" ?
What really happened, exactly?
FWIW, here and at other forums, I've encountered timed-out login session when attempting to post but I've never seen "blocked".

Re: IP Blocked
Not sure we can do anything about the timing.
Spamhaus is part of the Forum software and automatically blocks listed spam IP's. tomwire is NOT a spammer but the IP appeared on a Spamhaus list.

Re: IP Blocked
I was trying something and rebooted my computer it didn't help. On restart the VPN gave me another IP. That's all that happen. I normally have the forum up and watch the posts but only login when I want to reply to something.

towwire and richb both, thanks for explaining
Re: IP Blocked
VPN's can cause this issue. If your VPN is using shared IP's a spammer may be using the same IP address. Some VPN' services provide a dedicated VPN.
