Ok. To make a long story short, me and someone else got into a fight, and somehow they maganged to block me from going to the proboards support forum (when i go to the proboards support it just comes up with the error saying 'page cannot be displayed'). I know it is them because I checked my firewalls and it wasn't blocking the support board at all.
So, is there any suggestions to somehow fix this? thanks in advance

Pure shot in the dark here, but email the guys at proboards and tell them that. Unless you actually got into a fight with one of the Proboards Moderators on that particular forum, in which case the ban is probably intentional.

I'm interested, how do you think someone you fought with (online or offline) managed to block you from visiting one site, and out of every site in the world, picked one you happen to visit? If I was mad at you, and happened to live near enough to be able to access your PC, it would be much easier to send Lazyboy over to smash your router or something  You can see where the problem is by opening command prompt (on your PC), and typing "tracert support.proboards.com". That will trace the route from your PC to the subdomain, unless there's a problem with your connection somewhere along the way, in which case it will time out and display a * instead. Wherever it times out at is where the problem is... if it's the first hop, it's being blocked by your router. If it's somewhere in the middle, there's a connection fault along the way, and nothing you can do about it. And if it times out at PB Support itself, then there's a serverside ban (ie the ProBoards firewall) blocking you. |
