In Forum: Public Servers

There aren't any groups. When you cannot access the server, there is a chance you were banned.
Well, the fact that I couldn't access it before, and then I could, and then I couldn't again does seem a bit strange. Why would I be unbanned from the FTP only to be banned again?
Then again, I suppose I couldn't be unbanned from something if I was never banned in the first place... but if I wasn't banned, then how come I couldn't... Okay this is getting really confusing let's stop now.
Also, as said before, the obsolete KB was from Win2.x era, so there isn't any point to add it to the main support site.
Oh. Huh. I suppose that explains that, although there are articles that go back all the way to Windows 95 on the main support site. Like this one, referring to Microsoft Mail 1.0 and how to get the thing to work. Now, I don't know when they put that article on the main support site, but considering the last review was in 2004, I reckon it's close to that. Possibly.
Today, by example, isn't working for me, it asks credentials...
Presumably, the IP has been banned. It's weird why they're banning IPs at all from the FTP, considering they really don't have much to hide and it's never used any more anyway. Then again, I'm not sure it matters too much.
Oh, Microsoft, Microsoft, Microsoft, why do you riddle us this way,
Your FTP's odd when it decides to kick users or let them stay.
