Posting via the clearnet address with a Tor connection right now. Hoping my exit node isn't IP banned as well. I tried to post a comment earlier in a thread about podcasts, but I got an error message saying I was banned. Not for anything I had posted, but because apparently 127.0.0.1 is IP banned. What's going on? I haven't been on Ramble in a while. I heard the site was dying, so I thought I'd give it another look, but it's no fun if I can't post anything.
I ran into the same thing when I tried to post while using the tor address
Sorry, Tor posting got restricted temporarily due to abuse. A glowie got banned and I got tired of cleaning up the utter trash and illegal stuff stemming from Tor since I'm mostly unavailable nowadays to monitor content.
Ckearnet, I2P, and Yggdrasil connectivity was unaffected because those networks don't generate as much risk for this site.
Did you try calling your ISP to ask them to unblock 127.0.0.1?

Not sure why a localhost IP got banned. Perhaps some internal server fuckery.
Do you have the exact error message?
