This is so nice to know! I mostly come here when I want to relax and get away from drama elsewhere or when I just need human contact, but I'll be less shy/ashamed now that I know I'm not being a huge burden or taking food out of anyone's mouth just because I'm lonely and want to say "hi".

It finally got me, just as I was replying to this comment https://www.jstpst.net/f/general/1911/comment/4326

Code on the banned page:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Banned</title>
<h1>Banned</h1>
<p>You are banned!</p>

I took a screenshot and started to write this comment, and when I was done I clicked back in that tab and tried to repost the original comment and it went through (I didn't try to post it again immediately afterwards).

This is probably not the reason. You'd still have to accidentally enter a ban reason, accidentally hit 'ban', then accidentally go to the ban list and accidentally remove my ban to cause what I've been experiencing.

My only guess is the site's setup results in invalid IP addresses being sent to the ban check function, and for some reason it gives a false positive. I can't replicate this locally, though, would have to look more into what Heroku(?) does.

  1. Do you have those sore points listed somewhere? Otherwise I can't address them :P
  2. I'm not very familiar with Gitlab so I dunno but if you find out feel free to let me know lol
  3. Fixing up the readme is on the to-do list. For now we're small enough that I don't think it's going to be that big a problem

Few points

  1. First of all thanks for this! I did arrive at some sore points while creating my theme that Ought To Be Fixed imo.

  2. Is there a way to follow a project on Gitlab? I couldn't find anything. I could follow you, but perhaps you don't want that particularly.

  3. You might want to remove the reference to Bitcoins in read me file or at least clarify it's (probably) Emma on the receiving end.
