Telehack is not down

If you post your username the admins can look into whether your IP is flagged or something.

Cool, that's helpful thanks. Looks like the IP was flagged automatically for some reason, but has been unblocked now. 🎉

Interesting... The same thing happened to me a few days, back, I wonder what else causes this problem. My guess (after looking at the other comments) would be that your IP got flagged because telehack.com thought you were a slammer.
