>> ILF Ban Glitch <<

A couple users a month have been visiting ILF to find that they can't access the site. Some can from their computers, but not their phones.
It's been causing confusion, and I'm sorry.

It's either an ILF glitch that temporarily bans them......or their internet provider temporarily banning ILF.

I'm not sure which, and it seems to resolve itself quickly in most cases, preventing me from doing too much research into why it's happening.

It's possible that IPs' security programs see all of the non-secure places to enter text on ILF, worry you're going to give away credit card info, and block our IP. :idk: I'm guessing this because Internet Explorer's security sometimes blocks ILF for this reason.

I'm working on getting to the bottom of it.
If you think you got banned, REMAIN CALM and email me, cause actual banning on ILF is super rare...if you actually get banned, there's no way you didn't expect it, cause you'll see it coming, and you'll know it's because you've been a giant douchenut.

So!
If if this ban glitch happens to you, email me with your IP address. I'll make sure you're not banned from my end.

:hug:

I'm sorry, Tom, it's my fault.

Has anyone done the math on what it would cost to get us ad free?
I haven't donated yet, I'm not sure what I can afford right now.

Ah, maybe that's what happened to Keaton?
He's been strangely quiet the last few days.
I miss seeing his witty comments about links to his project management website.
Hope he didn't get accidentally banned. :(

I'd totally be willing to have a monthly subscription fee if that would help. I love this place :group:

ILF will always be free, forum and B/S/T. :) I feel pretty strongly that that's the way good, welcoming, open forums should be.

I help offset some of the costs of running ILF with the Shark Tank (paid builder spam forum) and Adsense...I'd rather have Google kicking in some money than beg ILFers to send more money. I'd be just as excited if that money goes to supporting one the builders here.


But there is a pretty epic ILF project on the horizon...so you might see me ask for some donations soon...but the key to asking for donations is to make sure you're really, really giving something back to the people donating.

What I'm getting from this is, the more broken ILF is, the more awesome secret stuff Tom announces.

Seriously though, I love that this place is free, and fucking oath it should be, but if it came down to each of us chipping in a small amount to get ad free and onto a glitch free server, I'd be down.

How many of us are there now?
