Title: Error registering
Post by: computerfan0 nyr on March 11, 2022, 06:06:39 PM
Every time I try to join the forum, I get an error "Sorry, you are not allowed to register on this forum.100-179"

I have no clue what could cause such a vague error and would like help.

That error triggers when your IP address has been used by a known spammer. Try resetting your modem to get a clean IP address.

It would also be helpful if you can also tell us a little bit about your interest in roads and what you'd like to post about when you're approved.

Scott - it doesn't matter if we've restricted his entire range of IP addresses, because we're not even seeing the application.

I tried using my mobile hotspot and it worked! Now I just need to wait for my account to be activated.
