BE HUMAN

Fight for Earth. Fight for Humanity.

I frequent those forums, and generally just lurk here, so I thought I'd ask here :P

Basically, I hadn't broken any rules (as I was only talking about Skyrim in the Skyrim General Discussion thread)

Now, when I try and log in, a red message shows up on my screen saying "ERROR: You are not allowed to visit this community."

So I thought I'd been banned, but when I was banned before, for three days (I'd linked to a mod a few times, turned out it was illegal) it told me that I had been temporarily banned. So it does say in plain text "You are banned." But the message this time is different.

I'd generally just see this as a ban, but the fact that I cannot log out, and when I try to open my inbox, it loads forever without anything happening, I have a sneaky suspicion that it could be some form of glitch.

What should I do?

I don't know how if I can't get onto the forums, can't log off to sign in on a different account to message them, or can't open my messages. :/

I'd try and find them via Xbox (don't have Steam or anything else) if they have gamertags, but I literally cannot view the forums and thus find any mods or a way to contact them...

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

Have you tried a different browser?

Just go to the support section. Unless it entirely blocks you out of the webstie.

Try this, and if that doesnt work I could ask for you.

Thanks, but it did work! The message isn't there now, and I can log in.

But should I:

A) Log in on my account (Nordic Dovah) and risk getting this message (That happened when I tried logging in on my tablet.

Or

B) Make a new account and ask a mod?

Im pretty sure that is not illegal unless someone was making money off of it. And Im sure that the mods wouldn't ban you for something that trivial.
Ill message one for you and see whats up.
