Oddly, I'm cooking along fine on Houston at the moment.

I was tooling along and got a ban. I wrote the admins and it was reversed. No such notation there.

This time I fiddled with it by using another browser and even incognito mode to read and the red fine print popped up saying it was an IP. VPN wasn't having a problem with it before, I just don't know. I'm not unintelligent but I am a card carrying Boomer.

I received my second "You have been permanently banned," message in as many weeks. This time I wrote the admins again and then noticed it was further detailed that my IP had been banned? Are we not allowed to use VPNs. I'm retired from dallas but still deal with sensitive information with the various cities and agencies I consult with. Having to turn off my VPN to access the forum seems antithetical to our "protect your identity" mode of operation.

I typically bounce off a Dallas or Houston server unless I need to research something elsewhere on the globe.

Anyone know what's going on?
