Uh, you're not blocked. --Rory096 00:17, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
If your IP address is blocked, you can email me and I will take a look at it.--Shanel 00:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


Thanks, but I keep getting the "User is Blocked" page when I try to edit. The latest: "Your user name or IP address has been blocked from editing. You were blocked by Dbenbenn for the following reason (see our blocking policy): This IP address has been blocked because it is believed to be an open proxy or zombie computer. To prevent abuse, editing from these proxies is currently prohibited. For more information about open proxies and what you can do, please see the WikiProject on open proxies. Your IP address is 212.138.xxx.xxx." (I am using a dialup connection; my IP changes every time I connect. So after several trials, I can sometimes edit!) --SophiaEg 17:13, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Do you know if there a specific IP address that's blocked? Moe ε 22:13, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I have come across several blocked addresses (all from the same ISP). For example: "212.138.47.29" , "212.138.47.21" , "212.138.113.12".--SophiaEg 01:55, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

  • The problem is that your ISP seems to be operating open proxies. Your recourse appears to be limited to here. Sorry. Wikibofh(talk) 14:55, 23 March 2006 (UTC)


Thanks for your help, have already read that help page. Am using the current ISP only temporarily... and it does let me through once in a while.--SophiaEg 20:18, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
