I keep getting problems with the site - its not my comps as its the same on 4 diff ones.

Clicking on some threads I get the vbulletin saying I am not permitted to view the thread

or I get

vBulletin Message You have been banned for the following reason:

I assumed it was the thread they had posted in?

struck me as strange as I know this happens in a proboards forum I'm on.

It's a horrible thought isn't it?

Please can I have some more information? I am interested in:
1) When you experienced the problem (what time)?
2) Exactly what were you doing (with links if possible) when you saw the problem?
3) How often did you see this problem? Was it on many threads or very rarely?
4) Did the problem occur straight after you logged in?
5) Was it consistent with every thread you looked at?
6) Was it concsitent with a particular thread?
7) What did you do to make it go away?
8) Is this still a problem?
9) If you clear your cookies does the problem go away?
Basically the more detailed information I get the more likely I am to be able to be able to fix this problem.

Keeps telling me I've been banned when I try to go in to Discussion Time. If I refresh it lets me in.

Got a bit of shock the first time!

I tried to post in the moneysaving arms and I got a banned message.
Seems ok now.

I was just browsing round the threads and all of a sudden it said I had been banned for no reason, and no lift date!

Logged back in, and it's all okay now!

ETA : The banned message screen has been changed to warn of this, as I've just been banned again!
