whats up guys my names Robert, I used to go by ludicium gaming, Ive been on the cover project since about 2012, 2013, but for some reason when I tried to log back in yesterday It said I was banned. :/

I guess Im just a little confused because I haven't really even posted a cover or anything on here in a long long time, so I was just wondering why my account got taken down. If I violated some of the terms of use or something my bad, but I just was wondering if someone could tell me whats up.

I don't see your username banned. Either another admin already fixed it or it's your IP that was banned. If this is so, try logging in from another IP and let us know if that worked.

If it is the IP, let us know what is the IP you are unable to log in from and we will look into it.
If you have nothing to do... Don't do it here!

Happened to me too a few weeks back.  Even though i've been a good boy.  You just have to clear your cache and cookies, it's an ongoing problem the TCP overlords are working on.

That's what was happening to me last month.  I kept clearing cache, but I could only log in for a few seconds before getting banned again.  I couldn't even post anything. 

In my situation, it was resolved when Sheep removed the large IP ban that was recently put up. 
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

I believe it was all down any ban starting with IP numbers.
the problematic IP can be found in Mod's Lair in topic What's going on with all these bans?

Problematic IPs
OK, two so far.

I had issues logging in using at least 4 different IPs.  Shenske looked at my login history and made note that I've used a LOT of IPs to login over the years, but none looked problematic.  I'm not sure what changes were eventually made on TCP's end, but I haven't had any issues recently.
