Look, how about this:
A) quote what you're referring to. I have absolutely no clue if you're
going off on me or someone else on the list.
B) actually describe the problem. When we have trouble we can't
troubleshoot without help, we give more description than, "Banned by
ip". "Any solution?"
You're getting all pissy but still won't give details, and on top of
that you are getting defensive and belligerent when we have no way of
divining more information about what exactly you did or are talking about.
Also I've never heard of a site simply blocking you because you have
more than three trying to get into the web site. The only innocent
netizens I've seen ip-banned are due to spamming, and that effects
email. I've never run across it in web browsing (close to it are people
getting errors from Google when Google has reason to believe you're a
spambot, though).
You haven't even answered questions or elaborated on things like, your
post insinuating you have a neighbor on your connection (blocking your
IP because of them). What, they are using your WiFi? You actually mean
your ISP's netblock is being blocked, not your exact IP? A reference to
your "neighbor" getting blocked then you inherit their IP? What do you
mean??
So unless you actually give DETAILS, the only common reason I have EVER
heard of non-spam-related to actually having an operator block your IP
is because you did something you weren't supposed to be doing.
So, tell us what the situation and symptoms really are, and how your
network is configured in the first place. You might get help. Or keep
inciting people. They'll eventually follow your sulky signoff and just
start "neverminding" you, if they don't killfile your email.
