Popular Post Varhur Posted April 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2022 This IP ban issue is one big joke, but an even bigger joke is that Sly never fixed it, despite being, idk, 1-2 year old problem? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is premium a paid service (product) or more of a one-time donation/contribution to psnp? $13 for a lifetime service doesn't sound like a fair exchange for the upkeep of this site, especially as it continues to grow larger with each game, with each generation. If there was a subscription fee for premium then I'd be more concerned that standards weren't being met. Personally I feel like it's a miracle that the systems continue to operate at all for a lot of people. Although I also believe that there is room for many improvements/fixes but probably only if they implemented an annual subscription fee and then started hiring. I'd be interested in knowing if $13 per premium member is truly enough to meet their expectations, or is $13 actually too much? Can anyone with insight in running these kind of websites shine a bit of light for us? Edited April 4, 2022 by ZealousZealot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No ads Ads over time will likely bring in much more than the one time income from a Premium membership payment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggsAndCells Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Yeah I got hit with this as well. My IP was blocked for a couple days and when it was finally working again, I updated literally 1 account then I was blocked again. Tf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluxcaa Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I've been blocked for way too long, payed for premium and this owner doesn't give a shit about wiping the 'blocked IP' list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berendsapje Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Also been hit by the IP Banhammer since yesterday. I did update some profiles for competitions, and it's only my first time, but would like to see be able to update again. At least my own profile still works Knock on wood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have peaked at others' but not actually updated, only my own, and still got hit with the banhammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HusKy Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Decided to update my friend's profile (first profile update other than my own today) to see what games he was playing recently and *BAM*, I'm banned. This is probably 3rd or 4th time I'm banned now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vault-TecPhantom Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Able to update now on my wifi but seeing as this silly implementation is in place I think I'll be updating my profile much less often from now on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dry Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) “You’re IP has been blocked temporarily due to too many update requests” “Temporarily” blocked? Bullshit. My home Wi-Fi has been blocked from updating any profiles except for mine for about a month now, if not a month and a half going onto two months. What even was Sly’s reasoning for disabling automatic updates for non-member accounts added to the website anyway? I sure hope I’m not the only one who can’t think of a good reason to justify hosting profiles on this website that were last updated years ago and if there is, I don’t imagine it’s aged well (PSNP in 2018 =/= PSNP in 2022, even though the website today appears mostly the exact same way it did years prior). My point being, I wouldn’t be in this situation if only all profiles, especially those without a registered user profile to the PSNP forums, were automatically updating themselves. Why should I be told by this website to not do it’s job of adding/updating new and existing profiles when it refuses to commit to said job? Either I’m the one updating profiles for the website or the website does it’s job correctly for all profiles (except maybe those removed from the leaderboards, not serving these profiles I can understand).

Varhur Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Banned again, apparently updating your own profile 2-3 times a day is too much. Sly never addressing this issue feels like a big middle finger to the face and I'm not surprised at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Duderino Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I haven't been able to use the update function on my tablet for months by now. On desktop, everything works as it should. This guy just don't give a fuck about his site anymore. Using a VPN is the best way to get around this nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After checking your profile: It actually is, dude! Look, I'm not trying to justify the block system... I think it's too strict as well. But after being temporarily blocked myself a couple of times on this site, I did realize that "trying to undermine the automatic update cycle" is very much one variable. You're a registered member, so your profile should update itself every 24 hours. It does not matter, that all you did was update your own profile and nobody elses. Every time you do it in less than 24 hours, your IP collects points. After the points sum up to a certain point, you get temporarily banned. At least in your case, the block system does exactly what it's programmed to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zizimonster Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) My IP has just been blocked. It is the first time for the year. ? Fortunately, I can still update my own profile. ? Edited August 7, 2022 by zizimonster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAK-KRIEG Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) I got hit by it too this morning I manually tried to update my profile and bam your ip is temporarily blocked. I've never had this problem since joining in 2011 despite doing sometimes 3-4 manual updates per day. I never update other people's profiles.

El Duderino Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) Just use a free VPN to avoid this. By the way: Your IP gets blocked after about 100 update attempts within a 24 hour period. Edited September 19, 2022 by El Duderino 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vpn I installed is surprisingly not hiding my ip. I just have to spend a little time to browse and find one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
