If you were banned and have no idea why, send an email to: info@paintballtimes.comPlease include your IP address, here is how to find out what it is:0. Go to www.whatismyip.com , if that doesn’t work, do the below steps:1. click Start2. choose Run3. type in "ping localhost"4. if it starts with 127.x.x.x or 192.x.x.x (then that is the wrong one) Don’t send ones that start with 127 or 192.5. you need to then use your router software to find out what your WAN assigned IP adress is.
