IP.Board Registration

I was wondering if you registered to a number of IP.Board (Invision Power Board) forums in a short space of time are you automatically banned from registering from anymore as an anti spam measure.


I can't register on their support forum to ask this either as soon as I register on any forum for IP.Board I am told I am not allowed to visit this community.


I have not spammed, advertised or in any way caused hassle in any of these forums, in fact I have not posted at all in any of the forums I registered on last week to trigger this anti spam measure.


Any advice would be appreciated.

It could be a number of things.

It could be that they use the StopForumSpam plugins and something you are using is banned.

It could be your username, or if you are using a free email provider they might disable the use of the domain....or maybe....

Just maybe you are in a country that hands out unique dhcp ip's every day and someone used that same ip two months ago to spam a forum and got the ip banned.

The most common reason people have trouble registering here is the username though, since non-unique usernames like (fred, jamie, rose) have often been used to spam somewhere accross the internet and can be found in the spam database.
