Banned??? and no reason for it???

Kay2112 · 18th July 2001, 01:35

I found that my new favorite Station was banned apparently for no reason, they try to stream to shoutcast and it says your banned bogger, what the heck is that? and does anyone know who is in charge of banning in shoutcast servers? I would like to email or call that person via voice and hear why, Now I am forced to tell all my friends the ip address and explain to them how to find warp-radio.com. Instead of them just looking for them on shoutcast. everytime i find a good station they get picked off the list!

These forums are not that busy huh? Again I'm asking why people get banned for no reason in shoutcast listing, also there is no email address to email my questions, I tried admin@shoutcast.com but it was returned? Also does anyone know of an alturnative listing other than shoutcast? Like a 3rd party thing? that lists shoutcast streams? and in listing is there any bias against non AOL casters? If there is a bias who can I email, write or call?

I think that`s strange. Did you try to contact the admin? Maybe they had a reason to ban. Did the radio done somthing?

actually you get banned if the admin finds that your IP is trying to fudge its numbers, or abuses the YP. If you share a server with someone then someone else on your machine attempted to do bad things to the yp.

Something else that I might mention is that ususally once your banned there is no going back. They are pretty heavy handed about abuse here.
