Why have I been banned?

[reyfox_i]

I post sometimes in the comment section of articles. And this is very rare.
Yet today, when I went to make a post about the new MSI based AMD RX series cards, I see I have been banned from posting.

I don't flame, use profanity, etc in my posts. The only thing I had to do is reset my password since I couldn't remember it when I went to Publish the post.

Thanks for any info....

I'm not showing any bans on your account. If you were connected to a VPN it's possible it had an IP ban in place.

Thanks for the quick and prompt reply!!
I just tried adding a comment again to this thread:
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/msi-mech-amd-graphics-cards,37058.html
and when I click the "Submit" button, across the top of the page it says, "You have been banned!"
I have a screenshot but see no way to attach it.
Thanks.

You'll need to use a image hosting service like imgur to post an image.

Sorry, I do not have an image hosting service. I just tried posting again in a different article and still am banned.

Thank you. Also, I am not using a VPN. My ISP is Orange fiber optic internet here in Poland.
