Internet trouble

[Retribution]

There's a site I frequent that I am occasionally banned from for no reason. Always the same reason/time (about a year ago). I didn't do anything wrong on the site, so I suspect it's a problem with my ip. When I reset my IP it usually works again.

What's the site.

4chan

What do you mean by "banned from"? The site doesn't let you on? Or it doesn't display?

4chan

That's because the site you are connecting to doesn't appreciate non-japanese IPs connecting to it. They're simply sick of dealing with every stupid foreigner coming along and either asking questions in their own language, or downloading everything they see in hopes that it's something good. 4chan is a forum which is owned and operated for a single language and for a single country. They are allowed to ban whomever they want, for whatever reasons they want. With the more recent events surrounding piracy, and ero games made in Japan being distributed around the world, it's only natural that a site which often has those things exchanged would be even more restrictive of foreigners.

 

Simply put, it is not a place where you are welcome, and it is not a place where you have any business in visiting. Just because they may share the occasional Oblivion mod which doesn't get uploaded anywhere else doesn't mean you have the right to go and download it.

 

At any rate, you are getting banned regularly because you are connecting with a non-asian IP, so the only problem on your end is that you are living in the wrong country.

Incorrect. You're thinking of 2chan.

4chan is just as troublesome concerning being plagued by hackers constantly and being the source of them as well!
