I've noticed that I can't connect to the site from my own IP lately.
EDIT: This has been going on since about a day after you said i'd been banned for 10 seconds. Is it possible that my IP is banned, but not my account? Because i can connect perfectly through the Tor network and i've tested it through some generic proxy sites, it's definitely not a browser problem. It's not a major annoyance, just that the Tor network is pretty slow sometimes. But if i'm supposed to be banned, could someone please tell me next time so i don't ridiculously keep posting, it's like a situation when the ghost doesn't know it's dead.
