ISP blocked due to abuse?

Name: Anonymous 2010-07-24 6:18

Well, it seems today that I'm now unable to post anything over at the 4chan imageboards, otherwise I get this message:
"Posting from your ISP has been blocked due to abuse. [More Info]"
I can still browse the site, all the images and threads load fine, I just can't post. What gives? I've never posted spam or porn.

Quick go to an internet caffe or an unsecured wireless hotspot where you can post on 4chan.
Post your question at the new questions board : http://boards.4chan.org/q/
Make the thread about ISP bans in general. Someone posted one about Venezuela but didn't get much attention. Don't be selfish! Help us out!

I'll do it myself tomorrow if it hasn't already been done by then.

Tfw you're going to start a 7 to 4 work now and between that and studying you won't have time for this anyway

It's been a good ride, see you bros.

Link to the thread here so we can at least follow it, assuming its capable of lasting long enough.

Would be nice, yes.

I can post from my phone, but navigating 4chan and typing anything moderately long from it is a huge pain. I suppose I could tether it, but I don't have that much bandwidth.

Two threads so far with pretty much zero posts and drowning fast.

/q/ has been around for, what, 2 days? And there's already 9 threads dedicated to "saving /jp/". And other threads specifically for bitching about /a/, /v/, and /sp/. Christ, it didn't take long for /q/ to go to shit.

Worst part is, there's a link to this board right at the top of /q/, and this is essentially the ONLY active thread here. You would think someone would pick up on this...

ISP bans are the most barbaric, lazy, and unjust way to solve the problem

Yea.

Gonna try my luck with IRC. They *know* about ISP Bans, and basically amounted to saying "Thems the break, kid. You can't circumvent the ban without breaking a few rules". But HOPEFULLY, somehow, we can just get rid of ISP bans entirely.

Also this one. I really don't think there's anything that can be done about this.

Yea, from the sounds of it, Mods can't do anything. It HAS to be Moot. At least, that's what I gather.

Try more than a single line of text next time. Someone needs to write out a fully fledged OP to grab peoples attention.

GREETINGS, I COME FROM THE FUTURE

AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT IT IS NOT A PRETTY ONE

YOU LIKE THIS WEBSITE? YOU ENJOY SHITPOSTING LIKE A GODDAMN FAGGOT OR SIMPLY LOVE THE ANIMOSITY ANONYMITY BRINGS FOR BOTH PARTIES INVOLVED IN YOUR DAILY DOSE OF SHITFLINGING WITH SOME JACKASS FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GLOBE? FIND IT ENTERTAINING, HUH?!

THEN I FUCKING TELL YOU, STOP BEING A LAZYASS AND DON'T ASSUME YOUR LIFE WILL GO ALRIGHT, BECAUSE IT FUCKING WON'T

LOOK AT HOW THAT PHILOSOPHY HAS YOU NOW, A PATHETIC, SOCIALLY AWKWARD SHUT-IN WITH MORE TIRES (OF FAT) THAN A FUCKING TRUCK

AND YOU WILL LOSE WHAT LITTLE FULFILLS YOUR PATHETIC LIFE NOW; ARGUING WITH COMPLETE STRANGERS MIGHT BE THE LATEST THING TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING

HAVE SOME FAGGOT PLAYING LEEJUN GET BANNED FROM YOUR ISP A THOUSAND TIMES AND YOU, TOO, WILL SUFFER THE SUFFOCATING PAIN AND POWERLESSNESS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO FUCKING REPLY TO THAT COMPLETE DICKHEAD THAT'S TOTALLY FUCKING WRONG

FOR MONTHS

FOR YEARS

AND ULTIMATELY, YOU, DEVOID OF ALL LITTLE JOY YOU COULD POSSIBLY HAVE, WILL BECOME A FUCKING NORMALFAG AND SOMEONE IN LIFE

DO YOU WANT THAT? NO? THEN FUCKING HELP YOUR BRETHREN AND YOUR FUTURE SELF TO DEAL WITH THIS SHIT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE

LET US BITCH, MOAN AND CRY LIKE MANCHILDREN TO GET OUR LUXURY TO POST BACK (BECAUSE APPARENTLY THE FREE USE OF A WEBSITE ISN'T A GODDAMN RIGHT ACCORDING TO THE DRACONIAN FAGGOTS THAT RUN IT)

THAT IS ALL, HAVE A GOOD FUCKING NIGHT WHILE YOU CAN, GENTLEMEN

I suppose it can use a bit of editing, but otherwise I think that'd suffice. And before someone points it out: yes, it's totally, absolutely a projection of my status quo.

I'll create a thread with that (assuming you seriously want me to), but since I have no clue how people will respond, I can't promise I can maintain it.

it may be better to post on a day moot is reading /q/ threads, today seems to be useless

Problem is, he seems to post mostly late at night. It would be one thing if he posted semi-regularly, but I really don't feel like staying up every night in the hopes of catching his bi-monthly visit or some shit.

I'm almost tempted to beg to whoever reads this thread to try to bring this problem to Moot's attention when/if he's ever around.

Thanks for the unban people helping. I'll keep sending emails to moot.

Doing what I can to keep the thread bumped. I'll probably save some posts and form a "proper" OP for later.

AOL users *should* be unbanned, and hopefully, Moot will look into the matter.

So now we just hope that we're the lucky ones that get thinned out?

Holy shit! I just tried to post on a stupid thread on /b/ to try it out...and it worked! moot unbanned me. I love you moot.

Tried posting on /a/, but to no avail. I guess RDS is still a no-go.

CANTV is, too, a no-go.

Definitely keep trying, but understand spam is still a hassle. Unblocking certain ISPS does run the risk of opening the floodgates for spammers. But if you can learn about other means of dealing with spam, definitely try to get those ideas to moot.
