Hi!

On my iPad and a windows PC I’m apparently banned, but can access from my phone. I get the message “Sorry richard_cooper you are banned from using this forum! This ban is not set to expire.” I can post via my phone so presumably something is wrong.

Any ideas I’ve tried logging out, but apparently I’m even banned from doing that!

Thanks

Are you running a VPN? I have had this happen a few times. Turning it off and clearing cache / cookies seemed to clear it up. I always assumed it was VPN related because it only happened when it was on.

Nope, no VPNs on, now I’m in work I’m banned on my office machine as well, but phone still works fine. Moderators?

I had this problem a while back and cleared my cookies and other browser data and was able to log in again.

If it's at work then it's probably blocked by your IT department's policies. Our policies here are quite strict but I'm still able to log on to this site.

If it's not that, do like others have said or try a different browser.
