Huh?

"Failed: Unable to accept project because the IP Address '76.17.220.228' has been blocked."

Is Scratch mistaking my IP, or something?

Wait -- are you trying to upload a project from scratch? If you are then it may be that you got banned or a glitch of some sort. It doesn't appear you got banned since you've been here for such a short amount of time and you can also post on the forums.

Are you banned anywhere on the site? And, has this happened before?

Re: Huh?

That's odd - that isn't even your IP. Try uploading it from a different computer, maybe?

Re: Huh?

And remember to turn off firewall, or allow Scratch to access the internet.


Hai.

Re: Huh?

Have you tried using a different account on a different computer?

Yes. Different location, and IP to. Is there a banned user with the IP?

I'm afraid I'm not permitted to divulge that information.

Try using a different username at a brand new location?

Could you at least tell me if there is a banned user with that IP? You don't need to say the name.

Hey Lonewolf122, because of the way the administrator function are set up on the Scratch website, community moderators have no access to the part of the ban list that is responsible for blocking project uploads from certain IP addresses, so us mods cannot say anything on the issue.

The nature of the IP problem here will probably have to be taken care of by the site administrators (Scratch Team). I sent a report to the Scratch Team to look into this situation.  smile

Re: Huh?

Looks like that IP is associated with a blocked account.  You should probably contact the Scratch Team directly using the Contact Us link at the bottom of every page to sort this all out.
