==What to do if you're blocked == | |||
If you are a '''''user''''' who is experiencing a block, please take note of these two things: | |||
* You may be blocked because your IP is within a range of blocked addresses. In other words, an admin here might ''not'' have blocked you specifically; you're just unluckily trying to reach the wiki from a "bad" IP. If the blocking reason you're seeing doesn't match your actions, and particularly if this is your first visit to Tardis, please go to [[Special:Contact]] and fill in a report to Wikia staff. They'll be able to help determine what's going wrong for you. | |||
* If you've been blocked for something you've done here, and an admin tells you that your block has been lifted, but you still can't edit, try [[Help:Bypass your cache|bypassing your browser's cache]]. Most browsers do not automatically update your banned status. If that's not working, go to [[community:User talk:CzechOut]] or [[community:User talk:Tangerineduel]] and leave a message. | |||
