I will try that next time as that actually makes sense of it not working from your usual IP address. ---

I just got in. Was out for a couple of days and I got a lot of work done and bought zero records. There may be a coincidence in there somewhere. ---

I’ve also managed to avoid a major domestic incident explaining why I needed yet another pair of the Nike General Purpose trainer but in a slightly different colour. ---

If you’re using a laptop/desktop at home then try rebooting your router, you should get a new IP which may help. As the forum is behind cloudflare it could be their IPs that are getting blocked which is why the repeated retries may eventually help as you’ll eventually hit another one of their servers. ---

Only desktop working for me. Tried everything on my phone. My work browser is rubbish/restricted so expect links rather than embedded stuff. If you’re arsed about that kind of thing. ---

Was the same here. Tried the advised route of hammering the attempts for weeks (here and abroad) still no joy. Tried again last night, straight in, first go 🤷🏼 ---

Got back in on Mac desktop, Safari still no joy but DuckDuckGo a winner, no idea why a browser change would work if it’s a IP or Cloudflare issue, but there you go. ---
