I've never had any account on this forum before, but when I try to register account using my computer it looks, it's automatically blocked. I had to register it on my sister's PC. When I try to do that I'm getting "Your are not permitted to register a user account with this site. Error code: 2S129/1". If I'm right can you please remove my IP from this list? I would like to use my mail and be able to register my own account. I can provide list of my mails (3) I tried to use on priv. Okay, I am looking into your problem, but I am not sure what the status of the issue is. You were not able to register an account on your own pc, but you were on your sister's. So you do have an account. I also see you logged in an our ago on a Windows device. Was that on your pc or your sister's? You said you would like to be able to register your own account, but you already did that on your sister's pc, right? Or am I misinterpreting things?

Not only do those with bad intentions have easy ways around it anyway (proxies, VPNs, IP spoofers), but people with good intentions can sometimes end up with that banned IP. In some countries, home consumers don't get a fixed IP, meaning it cycles to any available IP from the ISP upon a modem reset or an ISP side update. For example here in Belgium this is normal on DSL connections, except for the business packs. Yeah, of course. IP-bans are not the best. And we usually don't use those a lot, so it might be a different issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean she created this account for me using hers mail. On hers PC connected to hers network. On 7/12/2024 at 2:07 PM, Jim said: Was that on your pc or your sister's? I'm able to login on mentioned account from my network using my PC. I wasn't able to register by my PC. She also tied to create account using my mail (for me) and login, but it wasn't possible. So this account is purely temporary. On 7/12/2024 at 2:07 PM, Jim said: Or am I misinterpreting things? She created it with hers login. I tried to create account named "DzieX" as i usually do in internet but it wasn't possible. For me it looks like every mail I used (have 2 on gmail) and every login I tried (DzieX or DzieXik) in registration process, they were automatically banned.

Jim Posted July 13 What was the error message when she tried to create an account on her pc with your email address? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DzieX Posted July 13 The error was always the same "Your are not permitted to register a user account with this site. Error code: 2S129/1" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Posted July 15 I will solve the problem in a couple of days, when I get home. I can probably manually register your account or something. We will work it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But one thing I wonder about is how many other people could see that and give up. I was determined to have account here, but other might not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JesseNight Posted July 18 Maybe the email domain you've used has been frequently used by spammers before. I've been in a similar situation with my primary email address (from my isp). Not every country's isps are worldwide known and if too many spammers and botters arise from a certain domain, that sometimes leads to an entire domain ending up on a ban list. It made me create a gmail account on the side and that usually works about everywhere. You could even set it up to forward everything to your primary address. FTR I am no admin, this was just a possibility that I've experienced before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's true that some people won't be as persistent as you are. We will be upgrading to a newer version of the board hopefully by the end of this year. Maybe we will have better options. You can't yet send me PM's, because you need 10 posts. So if you answer to this one, you only need one more. I am at home on my computer for most of the day, so let's work this out.

Will it keep the clear and well structured forum layout? I'm not a fan of those modern social media news feed like layouts, always insanely hard to find older content back on such platforms. That's why I was happy to still find this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flemmbrav Posted September 9 I can't figure out how to embed images. I have hosted the image here: http://flemmbrav.de/E-Coupler/Bilder/Coupler.webp The button on the bottom right does not work. typing doesn't work either. There also seems to be no way to just type bbcode instead of using the editor. I tried with .pngs as well, didn't work either. How does one embed images?

JesseNight Posted September 10 Maybe because that site only uses insecure connection, or maybe they don't support embedding their images to other sites. Try uploading it to https://imgbb.com/ instead, I know that works for sure. You don't even need an account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
