Soulmate, I would recommend dialing back your paranoia level. I won't say that they don't have a problem with Icke, but it's very likely that your inability to log in normally has nothing to do with you. I've made only two posts there in the two years I've been a member, and I've been banned a couple of times as well, and with the same message on the screen that you listed. Although the number of posts and the number of bans have been the same, they haven't been related in time. Since you said

A DDoS is very difficult to stop because of the fact that it *is* distributed among many machines; banning just one of those machines doesn't help. The only thing they can do is block the entire domain of your service provider to stop the attack. That doesn't mean they suspect you or think that you're doing anything; it just means that *someone* is operating a DDoS concentrated from that ISP. As I said above, this happened to me twice, and after a brief e-mail discussion with one of their techs, I understood what they were doing and why. It's the only way to stop the attacks on their system. I'd be willing to bet that if you used any one of the many available web-based proxies, you would not only still be able to access GLP, but would also probably be able to log in to your account there and continue your discussions unhindered. It's a bit slower that way since everything has to pass through the proxy first, but it can be done. Last edited by tgraf66; 03-15-2009 at 06:36 AM. |
