4chan bans

From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Jump to navigationJump to search

Like every website on the interwebs, 4chan too has a banning policy, but what makes 4chan bans so much different than other bans (like being a complete dumbass here on ED) is the fact that to get banned from 4chan you have to do something so horrifyingly stupid that you'd have to be a pathetic loser to get one. It's like this: If you break a rule on 4chan, it's a ban; if you happen to come across a pissed off admin on 4chan, then be ready for a sure-fire beating from the banhammer. The greatest holder of the banhammer on 4chan was W.T. Snacks, but was subsequently banned himself by some faggot, and during Snack's reign bannings would come for either posting illegal content or BECAUSE HE FUCKING CAN. Nowadays bans are usually just for posting CP and spamming links and other gay shit like that, but occasionally epic bans can be produced if done correctly. Posting on 7chan or 420chan that you were banned on 4chan will get you banned, also Worf will anally rape you.

How 2 overcome ban on 4chan

 
 
Click the kitten if you would like to appeal your ban.

Close all but one 4chan tab. Open Command Prompt and type "ipconfig /renew", clear all cookies and site data from 4chan, if you're still banned after the first try, try it again


If that doesn't work, try these steps:

  • Go to your router's page (192.168.1.1 by default)
  • In "Status" or "Setup" menu hit "Release IP" button. Save settings
  • Disconnect the router from modem
  • Remove batteries from the modem and disconnect AC cord (DO NOT TURN OFF THE ROUTER).Leave it for couple minutes
  • On your router's web page find "MAC Address Clone" function and change your MAC address to whatever you want (only numbers 1-9 and letters A-F). Save settings
  • Plug in AC cord in the modem and reconnect it to the router
  • On your router's web page hit "IP Address Renew" button and new IP adress will be assigned to your router
  • Clear your browser data
  • Get back to trolling, camwhoring and invading other boards, Anon


Recently it seems it's not just your IP being checked. If you are still seeing the banned message after flushing your IP, change your user agent and flush your IP a second time.

If you're a filthy phoneposter, just post with mobile data, just be aware this runs the risk of getting rangebanned even moar than normal. (srsly 4chan hands them out like fucking candy)
