Help! IP banned.

So I came info work yesterday morning, fired up the old laptop and swung over to these forums to find a note that says the administrator has banned my IP address. I'm pretty sure that I have posted less than 5 or 10 times so i don't think I did anything that would cause this. I have sent emails to the admins each of the last two days via the link in the "you're banned " message but no reply yet. So, where is the appropriate forum for asking why my machine has been 86ed and what i can do to read the forums again from my desk instead of my phone?

Thanks
 
Best practice would be to contact admin, then wait. These forums are super busy and there are 2 main admins running it all, they get really busy im sure but they are good about getting back to people.

Sorry to see that, timberbosco.

I've moved your question here to the Suggestion Box and Feedback area where admins check regularly. But, as Caddyman says, be sure to PM Phases: http://androidforums.com/members/phases.html
 
Looks like a spam account using the same IP address was banned late on Friday. Phases will be able to fix it for you as soon as he sees this :)
