Not sure what I was doing to look like a spammer, but thought I would ask:  https://wikiindex.org/Special:Contributions/172.26.30.192  Best, [[MarkDilley]]

:Hello  Mark.  Apologies if I somehow managed to block you.  There is a bug somewhere in our software, and that IP address requested an account, which I approved.  And they then created a blatant spam page - [[Ndifreke Ukpong]] - which clearly had nothing to do with any wiki!
:Checking the [[Special:Block/172.26.30.192|block log for that IP]], they are only restricted from editing as an anon IP editor.  They are still able to create new accounts, or login from existing accounts.  So genuine registered users should not be blocked!
:Another guy on MediaWiki.org also commented that our software configuration has bugs which are preventing password recovery emails, and Karsten also concerned about our buggy config.  Regards  [[User:Hoof Hearted|<big>Sean P</big>, <small>''aka'' Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]] / [[Staff]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 12:52, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
