Anyone else get banned from geekhack for no reason?

I got banned for spam but I'm 99.9999999999% sure I've never even posted a comment there. I never really did like the layout of their site but would check it on occasion out of curiosity. Mainly I just browse the reddit mech communities. Maybe they didn't like my vpn? Who knows? I do know one thing for certain. I'm no spammer. Oh well.

I'm not very active over there but I haven't had any issues. I'm thinking it's probably your VPN too.

VPN sounds like the likely reason. I was flagged by a financial institution and my account got locked out for the same reason. Some other bugger was probably using the same VPN and they falsely correlated you both.
