| My brother was attempting to login to this website. One of the keys was messed up, so his logins kept failing. Being the idiot that he is, he attempted to login five times. And our IP address has apparently been locked out.. Is this a temporary thing? I am now unable to log in on the computer now due to this even though I wasn't the one failing to log in. How can I get my IP Address unbanned? Or do I just have to wait a little while? Any help is appreciated. I don't want to have to use my phone every time I want to log in! Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching. |

| I have the same problem, the MAl updater tried too many time, so now my IP is blocked, and I cannot change it, because I got a fix ip address. So I can't log in from home. |

| Well, the IP block happened yesterday. I woke up today, and now I can log in again. Thanks for your help everyone!

It would be great if they could change it so that it wouldn't happen until 10 failed logins, or at least if they could reduce the ban to an hour. gerey said: I have the same problem, the MAl updater tried too many time, so now my IP is blocked, and I cannot change it, because I got a fix ip address. So I can't log in from home. If you try tomorrow, it should work. If not, then I guess you could try turning your router off for eight hours. (I would suggest doing so overnight), |

| I don't know why anyone would block your ip address. |

| it would be retarded if they left it as a permaban so don't worry |

Crave implemented a change that we were unaware of until recently. Failure to type in your password 5-7 times will automatically give you an IP ban of 2 days. We're currently in the works of turning that down to 2 hours. You will have to wait a full 2 days before being unbanned. Sadly, us mods cannot overpass craves automated ban. |

But it's good to hear that you guys are trying to lower the ban time. |

| It's 11 failed login attempts now and the ban duration has been reduced to 2 hours. You will also see a notification about this when it happens so you know what you can expect and are not completely clueless. |
