Looks like I'm banned from AVSIM !??

[pryoski]

This is NOT a rant .. I'm genuinely puzzled.

 

Well .. very strange .. every access point is blocked with ...

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

 

I wonder if my profile's been hacked and nefarious things done as me? I remember them stating not long ago that they (AVSIM) would just pull the access from people they suspected of doing bad things to their forums (hacking/spamming etc) ... I'm not sure I'd enjoy this  type of notoriety!

 

And I can't even email the forum admins because I get ....

Forbidden

So for any Avsim moderator type person who might wander to these fair X-Aviation shores .. I'm harmless .. and would appreciate a reason as to why I get that message ... or even if I am accused of anything at all! .

 

Cheers,

Kris P.

Leen De Jager, who did some of the repaints for the Saab, is a mod at avsim.  Perhaps shoot him a PM through these forums and ask him if he can shed some light on the subject.

In the meantime, what is your username over there and I can check to see your status in your profile.

You use the name "Pryoski"....correct?  If so, earlier your profile said you were online, and now it's offline. But no "banned" under the avatar. Besides being banned, for a week or two,,, I think I've seen those messages also. Had something to do with my computer internet access settings. Been too long to actually remember the cure.

Have you cleared your old Avsim cookies from your browser cashe ?  I went to log in over there to and fouind an entire new system running.

Been a member of Avsim since 1999. Had to look through my saved passwords in my firefox control settings and found I had changed them

and used the ones I had found and was logged in and able to get to the forums.

I was going to suggest resetting your browser or clearing your cookies, too.

[pryoski]

Thanks, I'll give that a go .. @ work currently and can access from work!

Patience paid off, good to know you found a way back in. It was pissing me off to when I could not get in. Worked at it for days and all of a sudden I was there.
