I've been blocked????

Post Reply New Topic

I was sending links via PM to someone, as requested by them and it's blocked me! WTH! ID 2026d493c89c0d01

I get blocked pretty frequently. It's a bug in the system.

Try to send the link again.

If it's who I think it is, then she may have added you to her "Foe" list.

It was Nurseangela. We were talking about a shared interest. We had been talking in PM. I disagreed with her on the bullying thread but it wasn't an argument. I explained my point of view and it's not that different from hers. I don't think she would do that. I just went ahead and posted the rest of the links in the Random forum and made a thread with her username in it.

Who did you think it was? You can PM me and tell me, now I want to know lol. I'm assuming I was blocked because I had sent her about four PM's with lots of links in them so they wouldn't all be crowded into one big PM in her inbox and so she could sort them. THe message said that it triggered some kind of security thing about spammers or something, so it was probably all the links sent so quickly. Also sometimes now that the site has been updated it will try to send a PM or post twice in a row and it will tell me I can't post again that soon. Maybe that happened with all the links in the PM and it triggered it. I don't think she would do that over a polite disagreement, especially when I went into so much detail to explain what I meant so she would see that I wasn't just being cranky or something.

I'm sure she will see the post in Random for her and know why I didn't get to finish sending them to her. They are really interesting and have lots of info that she will like. I've looked in my outbox and she hasn't even read any of the PM's yet so I honestly don't think she would add me to a foe list because I disagreed politely about something. She seems level headed and able to talk about topics without taking it personally. I wasn't even harsh or anything, so I don't think that could possibly be it.

PM me please and tell me who you think it was. I'm all curious now.

If someone hasn't read any of your PMs they're probably busy with other stuff, or perhaps you came on stronger than you realized and she wanted some space.

I guess what I would do depends whether the first four PMs went through and weren't read, and then you were blocked or if the order was different.

No, I don't worry that she hasn't read them. I sent them much later than I read hers. She's probably not online or something and will get to them when she gets around to it. It's the site that did something, I don't think somebody did something. The links I sent were ones I told her I would because they are about a shared interest and I warned her I had a lot, but they are interesting. She didn't block me, you can't block someone by adding them to a foe list anyway. It's something to do with the security thing of the site. It even told me that. It gave me a number at the bottom and told me email the site administrator. Supposedly I was blocked from the entire site according to the screen but when I opened up a new tab and went to WP it let me post on the forum and send messages. It had been making me do a captcha when I'd send the bunch of links like I said I would, so I think that had something to do with it. It's a security glitch, not a personality conflict.

I've been having tons of trouble with the site since it's been updated. So much so that I'm about to just take a break from it and give it a few weeks or so and then come back. It's frustrating as hell when pages won't load and when some actually take three to four minutes to load. It's honestly like dialup. It also signs me out in the middle of doing something too. It's not something somebody did, I never thought that, it's some kind of bug in the site. Thats why I posted the number it gave me at the bottom of the screen. It said I was "blocked from wrong planet". and went on to talk about a security thing.

Where are our tech versions of the Orkin men to get rid of the bugs lol?

It just happened again when I was answering Fnord's PM. This is a copy and paste of what it said. At the top it said I'm blocked from WP, then it said this:

Why have I been blocked?
This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.
What can I do to resolve this?
You can email the site owner to let them know you were blocked. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the CloudFlare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page.
CloudFlare Ray ID: 2027fc3091e60d01 • Your IP (I removed that part for pasting) • Performance & security by CloudFlare •

But it just now let me answer somebody else's PM to me just fine!

Similar stuff used to happen a lot. I'm not technically knowledgeable enough to guess why it's happening to you but do you have any other computer problems now?

Nope, everything else is running just fine. It's just this site.
