I would change pubs, if I was you. Why choose Spamhaus when you can go to the Dog and Duck?

I prefer the Bier Hause, but I will say I got a slightly ropey pint in there pre the Arsenal game which tbf is very unusual. Might try the Spamhaus on Saturday.

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Thu Sep 30, 2021 2:08 pm

Hey Bosscat, a certain FF, could have the same problem as you.

I get that on and off, but only when using phone data and not via WiFi. I usually go to phone settings, switch ‘airplane’ mode on and then off, and re-try the post.

Usually works for me.

it happened twice last night then was OK .... didn`t do anything at all.
I know Steve1956 had a problem a while ago on several occasions but hadn`t heard anyone complaining then bam last night affected my phone.

Its OK now so no worries

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Fri Oct 01, 2021 5:16 pm

Hasn't troubled me for quite a while now,thought the powers that be had eradicated it,obviously not...it's a right pain in the arse when it gets hold of your IP Address.

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Sat Oct 29, 2022 10:09 am

Anyone having problems with this again my IP is blocked on this site I'm having to use a VPN to get on the site...thought we had got rid of this ballache.

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Sat Oct 29, 2022 10:33 am

Always happens to me in Wetherspoon when on their wi-fi - nowhere else.

DCWat · Post by **DCWat** » Sat Oct 29, 2022 5:48 pm

Had it on the hotel WiFi when working up in Scotland this week and then again over 4/5g today.

Switching airplane mode on and off worked today but not when on WIFI earlier in the week. It’s a pain in the arse!

That would just be silly.

I see that this is still going strong with randomly blocking whole swathes of ip addresses.

Yorkshire quota exceeded that’s all…. Only 4 allowed in at any one time.

Hardly come on here anymore because I'm always blocked by Spamhaus it's a ballache writing a post then getting the message your IP address is blocked,I'm having to post with a VPN all the time...it kinda pisses me off

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Thu Oct 19, 2023 12:42 pm

Why is it only on here?

You can resolve it yourself

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Thu Oct 19, 2023 4:28 pm

How do you resolve it?

To be honest, it only happens to me if I'm on Wetherspoons' wi-fi. It does happen in every Wetherspoon though.

There are instructions when you get it on how to remove the ip from their blacklist.

I tried that last time I had the problem. It didn't do anything.

Bloody annoying, I get it often, but reading posts below that could be because I generally use (or until recently used) phone rather than broadband for my connection. Getting lock-out at the end of last season cost me a week's entry in the predictor league, those few points would (OK, might) have seen me scrape into the playoffs

Currently my IP is blacklisted by Spamhaus for this website,I never get it with any other site,I have filled in the form Spamhaus post for you to un blacklist your IP at least 50 times it continues to keep blocking my IP for at least the last 3 years...filling in the un blacklist form dosent work.
I want to post with my own IP but its becoming increasingly difficult as I'm continually banned by Spamhaus

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 2:14 pm

Posting with a VPN again what a ballache this is.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 5:24 pm

Blocked on WiFi and mobile today. Really irritating. Just downloaded Proton VPN, free, so I can post. Why only this site?

So frustrating when you post a long rambling post of 10 000 words and the dreaded ..." your ip is blocked" message appears

Judging by some of the threads a few more need "Spamhausing"

ClaretinJapan · Post by **ClaretinJapan** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 4:54 am

I have to use a VPN to access the site where it's not all in basic text. Would like to see it fixed if possible. It's probably more Sushihaus than Spamhouse though

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Fri Feb 23, 2024 12:09 pm

Been Spamhaused for a fortnight now,anyone else suffering from this it's getting impossible to sign on to this site without using a VPN

Pickles · Post by **Pickles** » Fri Feb 23, 2024 12:12 pm

Yep, it happens to me very often and I don't understand what it is to be honest. I've sent them a message to try and resolve it but the reply was pure gobbledegook.

I don't think it is, but I wouldn't blame anyone for thinking it's a bit hack-y.

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Fri Feb 23, 2024 12:15 pm

dougcollins · Post by **dougcollins** » Fri Feb 23, 2024 12:16 pm

Think I've mentioned it before, this only happens to me if I use 'spoons WiFi. If I'm in 'spoons and use my data, it doesnt happen.

BigF · Post by **BigF** » Fri Feb 23, 2024 4:18 pm

It happened to me last summer, out of the blue. I was told to switch off my home wifi, (where I was using my laptop), for 5 mins and then back on. Not had a problem since. It was something to do with the router changing its access to the broadband I believe, perhaps works similarly to the person earlier who could access only via using a VPN.

I was just going to post this, the router will have fixed ip address but by turning it off for a while when you turn it back on it will be allocated with a different ip so you ahould be ok then.
