Metrocrossing.level3.net holding up my connection to Pownce
I cannot connect to Pownce.com because of an error with a certain server somewhere along the route to the server. The offending server is below.
14 80 ms 78 ms 79 ms Metrocrossing.level3.net [63.209.82.190]
That's part of a tracert I ran on pownce.com. All requests before it have perfectly normal timing, and all requests after it time out until tracert gives up on its own.

I’m annoyed.

Inappropriate?I can only connect to Pownce via a proxy. FoxyProxy helps with the website, but as far as I know, without a system-wide proxy set, I can't run any of the clients through one to allow my connection.
Edit: If anybody is interested, I could also post (or link to) the full tracert, but honestly, I dunno if it'll have any relevance. -
Inappropriate?I don't know what the protocol on bumping my own problem is, but I think that this is severe enough to warrant it.
This bug, this problem, this whatever...makes Pownce COMPLETELY UNUSABLE. I am unable to connect to pownce.com 100% of the time. This is not slow service, this is not on-and-off service. This is NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER.
I want to love Pownce. It's got a lot of perks over Twitter. I finally found a desktop client that works just right for me. But I can't use Pownce, and I haven't even heard a "We're working on it" (as empty as that is) from anybody.
Please. I want Pownce to be usable and pleasant, but this problem is stopping me from using Pownce, dead in my tracks.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Very sorry for the delayed response!
Email us at help@pownce.com with your IP and I can pass it on to our sys admin to double-check we didn't block you.
Again, apologies for not responding sooner.

Thank you for responding, and I'm sorry if I sounded rude or impatient. I just miss being able to use Pownce, and was frustrated by the lack of anything. My email to the help address is sent, and I hope things can be resolved. -
Inappropriate?i have same problem here
anyway , i do not understand why Metrocrossing.level3.net will block an ip
i did nothing bad on the internet (maby my ISP did , but not me )
anyway , its not the problem of Metrocrossing.level3.net to block rooting from an ip to another ( my opinion)1 Comment Add a comment

The problem was that I was IP banned. I'm not sure why I was banned, but I emailed help@pownce.com and the support staff helped me get things back into working order.

Inappropriate?ip banning i suppose it was made by Metrocrossing.level3.net
pownce.com can block you just if are able to reach their website
the path betwwen a client and a server pass trough Metrocrossing.level3.net .
is Metrocrossing.level3.net cut it , you cannot get to the server to make requests and also the server can`t send you requested info ( web pages , images , etc )
i belive that the problem is on Metrocrossing.level3.net or right after them and i have no solution to solve it :(
I’m frustrated
