Blocked IP Address?

Hey guys,

First time poster, woooot! Ok so, I'm trying to figure out if my IP address has been blocked by a website. When I go there on any device I have previously used to login to the site, I get a "403 Forbidden Error" or to be exact this:

"Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

I'm 99% sure they have blocked me... because my friends can get on with no problem and I can access the site at work (where I never logged on). What can I do to determine if my IP address is in fact blocked, and is there a way around this?

Thanks!

 

Why would they block you from accessing their website?

Very easy solution to this problem. In order to determine if your IP address is in fact blocked, simply log on while you are at work as you put it and then ask whoever runs the website (via email or through their forum) if you have actually been blocked and if you have; then ask why you have been blocked.​
