Hi there,
I am using ESPEasy for about a year now and I am ready to use the forum ;-) And sorry for my bad english...

But I have a Problem:
I tried to register, but got banned. I got a fixed IP address, I don’t think that someone abused it… My IP is 94.79.xxx.xxx. Maybe something went wrong, as I tried to register? New TLD email? 3 Digit username (I tried MAC). Tried this with other IPs, always got banned. Now I took a gmail address and this username and it works. But my IP is banned...

Can you help me, now I can’t even read in the forum anymore if I am connected to my normal network ☹

Thanks and regards,
Matthias

I don't see that IP address being banned. And you need to have at least 3 characters as your user name.

After trying to remove me Stop Forum Spam says: "Neither your IP or email address is listed in our database. We suggest you use a different username, and/or contact the forum admin where you were denied and request that they allow you to register."

It is not that urgent, but very disturbing...
