Theory: the IP address seen by Postmill is that of a reverse proxy which sends the actual end user's IP thorugh X-Forwarded-For or similar. However, Postmill/the web server hasn't been configured to use these headers, and the random bans happen because the reverse proxy used in the moment of posting has an IP address with a ban meant for another user.

Also worth noting that users marked as 'trusted' aren't subject to IP ban checks, but explicitly marking everyone as trusted is a pain in the butt of course.

No, I got it for Wii U.

its like when you do a terrible job of applying concealer and end up with tons of it in your eyelashes, then don't use any other makeup. looks pretty ghosty to me.

im a ghost every day, it's pretty ok

nice try, tumblr CEO

Very interested in reading this, but I have to accept the new terms of service to read the post, and apparently that's not a thing I should just do.

list of gaming crimes:

1. sonic without shoes
2. shaved mario
3. the diving animation in breath of the wild which kills your height when you want to glide and i'm totally not mad about this at all

youre going to jail

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.

Thanks, I'll let you know if it happens again. My IP shouldn't have changed since the ban message happened, though. It seems to be a random occurrence.

It's site-wide coz I got it when I edited my bio once.

how is this even legal? i guess language like 'terms are subject to change' means they can just make you agree to shit at will

dear tinder ceo

if you dont post dank sonic memes in this thread within one week, you waive your right to not spend 20 hours a day licking my feet

this one-sided debate doesn't cover the hedgehogs' genocide of the egg men

Signing a waiver that absolves me from liability when hundreds of thousands of peoples' passwords inevitably leak.

i keep telling my dad my sister and i aren't going to australia for a haircut, but he doesnt listen!!!

peeing out a train window

This depends entirely on the definition of 'you'. If your head was severed from your body, which of these counts as 'you'? What if both were 'alive' after the severing? Who is arbitrarily deciding which cells of the body count as one's soul? Why are some cells of your body assigned personality, while others aren't?

In the alternate universe where I'm not horribly insecure about my voice, I probably would.

But honestly this is fine. IntelliJ is not light on resources, and I'm only a student for another year, so I had planned on learning a free alternative anyway.

ie for mac is the equivalent of the restored painting in the bean movie
