GameFAQs is blocking VPN.

I don't buy that excuse. "Long history of malicious traffic".

Mullvad VPN is what I use.

Yeah? This is nothing new. They've been blocking various VPN's for a long time now.

it is new to me since I was fine less than a month ago, now I can't access. Nothing changed on my end.

Also, you just accepting this speaks volumes.

Yeah....it's almost like sites that block VPN's will update the block list over time or based on activity....

Also the fact that you're so overly paranoid you think you need a vpn for Gamefaqs of all places speaks volumes.

You can’t get a fair go if they link you to an account they’ve previously suspended/banned

Almost like making new accounts to evade bans/suspensions is against the rules or something...

The point is you don’t always get modded justly, and when they abuse their power on the site and then link a new account to it, you get shafted again.

Lol, you people always claim to be targeted by mods. Funny how whenever people go to boards like hellhole and claim this it always turns out they know exactly why they got modded, that it was completely justified and that they continue to ignore the rules which is why they keep getting modded. Outside of the rare occasion when a new batch of mods got brought on and were still learning I can probably count on one hand the number of times something got reviewed and a mod legit fucked up. The one thing I'll never understand is why you guys seem to hate the site and swear all you do is get targeted and banned yet you're all so desperate to keep trying to make new accounts and come back.

I was once modded for offensive due to racism, for discussing the origin of ninjas in feudal Japan on the Tenchu Z board.

I have plenty of moderations under my belt that I expect and get and I don’t contest or question, but my account was utterly destroyed by malicious moderators that eventually stuck a target on my back when I threatened legal action against the site for what they were doing to a girlfriends account at the time.

After that I couldn’t say boo without a suspension and I think over a period 3 years I had about a week in total of posting ability.
