Random ban message on mobile

[icedtea]

Last night I tried to log in via the mobile site and was told I was banned, but I was able to get in via Tapatalk. This morning the mobile site let me post on one thread, but then I got the ban message when I tried to post on another one. Tapatalk still seems fine, and I'm not having troubles accessing the site on my laptop. I have an Android, and use Chrome, if that's at all useful info. 

I can just use the app on my phone, but figured I'd report since this seems odd. Thanks!

Were you on cellular data or on wifi?

I'm thinking it may have been a global (proboards) ban against an IP address, and you may have gotten caught up in it.

Can you let me know the exact message you got?

Sorry, travel is slowing me down. I just tested and signing in on the hotel WiFi gets me a white screen with "You have been banned from this forum." But I can sign in/post if I use data (aha!). Thank you!

icedtea, would you mind messaging me the IP address associated with the hotel WiFi? You should be able to get it here: whatismyipaddress.com/

I can then check and see if it's on our ban list or if it's something Proboards has banned.

theophania, sent. Thank you!
