Long story short, there are these forums of this website I visit for reading up on old school CRPG (computer rpg's) discussions and general lulz. I never registered there because I really don't have the time to get involved in another forum. So I occasionally go there and read up on the latest discussions. Now that Skyrim is about to be released there are many discussions on there about it, so I go there more frequently these days. Unfortunately, the website is experiencing a surge in users such as me (again, due to Skyrim) and thus they have made their forums readable by registered members only. So with a sigh of annoyance, I complete the registration form (which is painless and requires only 2 minutes) but then I get the message that I am accessing the website via a proxy and proxy servers are banned from registration. I think the problem is that the ISPs in my country are based on revolving IPs or something, which is what is causing these problems. I tried to contact the site staff, but it has been nearly two weeks and they still haven't responded. I think either they are busy with fixing the site, or they are overwhelmed by similar pm's. (I can't be the only person who can't register because of this)
