BLOCKED

BLOCKED FROM SITE – by moderators.  Moderators may in fact block you from the site if you did not follow the rules and they were concerned about the welfare of the site.  However, there is generally a warning or at least a statement that the moderators will send you if this is in fact what happened.

BLOCKED FROM SITE – ACCIDENTAL -  This has happened, and in fact even happened to me.  And yes I did question the other moderators and they say no, must be my computer.  And it was.  If this happens to you and you know it is not a moderator issue, first try a different browser.  Blocking is often by a browser only.  There are different browsers – Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Firefox are just three of the ones out.  If another browser gets in then it is only a browser issue – and most likely a recent cookie – a bad one.  If this is just the browser, go to the browser and see if you can delete recent cookies and browsing and downloads – but ensure it includes the time up to when you were last able to get to the site.  Example – google chrome has a wrench in the upper right for settings.  If you click that wrench then one option it is gives is to delete cookies and history.  If you select that, you go to a new page that asks you what period of time to delete items during and what items to delete before it does anything.  That might help.  It did solve my personal issue.  Other browsers may have similar delete options.  If not, try your computers control panel and then look for internet options and see if there is anything that lets you eliminate  recent cookies and history.

BLOCKED FROM SITE – MORE SERIOUS – Remember that it still could be a cookie and that browser or other instructions were not clear.  So you might want to look into the above again.  But recall that viruses and ad junk abounds and any of that on your computer may block you.  You can often download something like “spy bot” or similar ad ware or spy ware software for free and try and see if that solves your issue.
