Yes, your fiber ip got picked up by our automated DDOS protection stuff. You got too many 429 errors. I will try to find what caused your 429s.

I've been trying different browsers to no avail. Sometimes rebooting my DSL router helped. I get little shocks from my gear sometimes, usually the router is shocking. I don't think I'm well grounded. However, now I'm primarily on the fiber, so I'm guessing it's my box somehow. Perhaps while running torrents and/or YouTube-DLG and/or too many tabs?

Thanks again.

I saw that you were getting 429 errors from the search page, and from the submit a post page. I loosed our conditions for giving a 429 error so hopefully this will stop happening. However I can't reverse your existing ban, so we'll have to test these changes in 24h. (cc u/magnora7 user DiogenesJr was also reporting 429 issues)

Thanks, I changed the 429 filter and ran it and updated the list, so the people having problems should be good now
