Spam Firewall

Post by Bruins_Fan »

Having some issues getting on the site at times with VPN (mandatory on this laptop).

I'm certainly not a spammer!

I'm going to have to turn it off. There's an issue with the server. It is sending its own IP address instead of the users IP address and they haven't fixed it yet. So no matter who you are, legitimate user or spammer it says you are all coming from the same IP address. That is why it is not working properly.

I'm getting SpamHaus blocking messages again. On both my phone (no VPN) and on my laptop (I use VPN). I was still able to post after clicking the spamhaus link, then going back to CF.
