Hello. I've read another post like this and decided to post here.
I can't log in because I get the error "You have specified an incorrect username". The username is correct - Ciri. When I tried to leave a message on their contact page, it showed me this:
You have been banned from this board until Wed Jul 21, 2021 3:16 pm.
Please contact the Board Administrator for more information.
Reason given for ban: Found in the Stop Forum Spam database
A ban has been issued on your IP address.
I've never spammed, why am I in that database? This is a mistake. I can't contact the admin either because the e-mail is nonexistent.

That's a different forum so there's nothing we can do for you here. You could try reaching out to them via the contact form on the forum to state your case.

Yeah, I sent a message there and that's where this error appeared, so it wasn't delivered. Their e-mail no-reply@lanik.us doesn't exist.
I saw a similar thread created a few years ago here and a user helped that person, that's why I decided to do the same: forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=51632.
