Banned from AirGunNation

[Old_School]

I suddenly found I have been banned from AGN. No reason, No message nothing, just banned.
Have this happened to anyone else? How can one contact them?

If you go to the main website, choose "Help" and "Contact Us" which should allow you to message the website moderator. He was very helpful when I contacted him. Only took a few hours to resolve the issue. Apparently, the forum software is very sensitive to potential Spam and/or fake IP addresses.

If you are actually banned, I won't be able to send you a PM.  Let me try that.

PM sent without any trouble...

En toe, meneer; het jy jou probleem oorkom?

I can log in by using my tablet through a cellphone data provider, but through work we now using VPN and that is what they block.
When you are in blocked mode you cannot even go to the contact area and mail them, you are totally locked out.
I actually reached out to Micheal on Facebook.

Glad to see my home language used here....:-)

Understanding the problem is useful.

What is interesting about AGN's security is that they allow non-members to see attached images and download files.  I actually prefer GTA's protocol where you need to be a member and logged in to see attached images and download files.  However, I can that being able to log on being a bummer because you can't participate.

I hope that Michael responded to you on FB.

Ek is verbaas dat niemand geklaa het oor my Afrikaans nie .  Ek woon nou 30 jaar aan "hierdie kant" van Bloubergstrand.

 Before you jump off the cliff,  Sometimes some one has been banned and you have picked up their ip number or even host, so try clearing your cach and restarting your comp or what ever you use and try that. I watch the bann logs when i see one showing up i know isnt banned i send him a email and fix it, but in his mind he thinks we banned him and we did not. David

Pretty sure it's Afrikaans. Nice to read other languages even if I don't speak them. I like the variety.

Bingo!

It probably sounds more like Dutch or German that Greek.  I which case, this short clip may amuse you:

Unless you have been banned form there before, I don't understand it.  Perhaps someone else used a similar name before, and left in disgrace.  Or your IP address is somehow associated with a bad apple.

I reported on your profile, asking how someone gets banned before they post anything.  That might get me banned too

 it says banned due to spam. not sure how to fix that, not a very worm welcome. I do not have a new IP address I have had this one for over 10 years. anyway looks like this site has plenty of helpful and useful content so i'll just hang out here
