I got that, but why would I be banned? I've only been on chat a few times and I never cause any problems or anything.

Does anyone think they know why I'm randomly banned from chat?

Chatsike blocked Verizon's ISP for some reason.

Oh, well that would make sense since I use Verizon. Thanks.

But why did they do it?

Chatspike uses various DNS blacklists to help determine who to ban. You need to find which blacklist(s) you're on, and request to be removed.
