Emailed Brent and got back on. The IP address that locked was out of Chicago area but had been hopped from elsewhere. 66.248.200.3
https://www.ip2location.com/free/traceroute Looking at previous issues over last few months its always been a hopped IP address that locked me out.
Dunno if it is a vindictive forum member or a Smart A$$ kid. Since all it takes to lock someone is their user name and a few failed attempts. I wish the actual account user name was different from our screen name as it would prevent this issue since it would be hidden. |
I never knew any of this, but it is understandable now. Scary. Many Forum moderators need to look at this.
