Sorry if this is the wrong forum to put this under, we didn't seem to have a technical issues sub forum, and mIrc is always dead when I'm in it, but last night I was playing and lagged/crashed out like I usually do, so I tried reconnecting and got this:

I tried power cycling my modem and router, restarting my computer, but no no avail. I cannot connect to any /tg/station server at all, but I can connect to others fine. I don't think I'm banned at all. Normally when this happened to me at /vg/station I'd just wait over night and it would be fine, however I tried it again this morning and still can't get in.

What do? Pls halp.

Try sending your IP to Scaredy.

Whenever this happens to me I just go into my router settings change one character in the clone MAC address option then restart my modem for a new IP address instantly

Oh so it's an issue with IP addresses? Interesting.

The server's firewall is super touchy I found this out when I was making the game banners, if you do anything at all that makes it get even a little bit suspicious it just blocks your ip address.

The biggest one that triggers for people here is spamming connections to servers too quickly when the server is down, a failed connection marks against you more then repetitive successful ones.

The firewall can't tell the difference between you trying to connect to a application that's down but suppose to be up, and someone trying to probe the server for running services/applications in preparation for a hacking attempt or ddosing; so if the game servers are down, don't spam them with connection attempts.
