Alright, here's what's happening, i post or edit a post, and i get banned for 2 or 3 days, no reason given.

Is this a glitch or was i banned for a reason, if so, just discard this thread. (Pm me before deleting thread)

And well, that's all i can really say.

(I might or might not get autobanned for posting a topic but meh)

posts in a potentially deadly thread

runs away

lingers to see what happens

With that asside:
We don't really ban people, asside from a few egos/r-tards:

The numbers in the status area were people who were banned before the pit moved over.

And your intelligent, so I don't think you were banned intentionally, probably a glitch. Although I've been wrong in the past.

No no, yodalman is right. I got the same glitch a couple of times as well. It feels kinda bad.

One way of getting it, is logging out from the internet while posting a reply, then logging in again (with a new ip, I don't have a static one). I guess it mistakes this behavior for a form of spam. There should be a way of switching it off? Like a list of banning conditions? You can trigger a ban way to easily at the moment. I remember at least 2 more times I got a one-day ban, just for clicking a few settings and profile changes.

Someone with the same ip address, which I assume is you Yodalman, has triggered the autoban for 3 days about a dozen times stretching back to June.

This happens when you trigger the flood control more than ten times consecutively, ie you have to make more than 10 page requests in less than 1 second for it to occur.

I have removed the autoban for the time being and replaced it with a message.

I have also reduced the flood control from 1 second to 0.1 second.

Thanks larchy, and that is quite odd, this is not a shared ip, other then the other computer on LAN of course, if it was then i wouldn't be able to download anything from rapidshare, unless i time the download right.

I could not do ANYTHING at all related to the forum, i couldn't refresh, go back, press the "forums" button or anything else without it showing that, on the bright side it's better then a ban.
