When logging into the Forum just now I received the message "The Administrator has banned your IP Address".

Everything is now back to normal but I'm posting this so anyone else who may have experienced it know it's not just them.

    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.
    The world is full of people throwing stones at us. Its what you do with them that counts. Build a wall or build a bridge.

    I got that too and just sent a message asking why. However, seems okay now.

    Ah! I got the same message - I wondered what I'd done wrong for a minute there!
    I'm a retired employment solicitor. Hopefully some of my comments might be useful, but they are only my opinion and not intended as legal advice.

    Same here - I hadn't posted anything, I was just reading. Oh well - just a hiccup.

    The last thing I'd posted was the contents of a robots.txt showing how to disallow search engines from trawling a site. For a moment I thought David Cameron was Administering the forum :p
  • Hi all,

    We had a site issue. Which is now resolved. None of you had done anything wrong. Please accept my apologies.

    I'm afraid it is going to have to be a no win no fee case. :D I spent ages typing my last reply for it to disappear. Some compensation should make up for my loses. :rotfl:

    No apology needed. Computer systems glitch, if they didn't I'd be out of a job :D

    It got sorted quick though, excellent work.
