Has My I.P. Address been blocked?

I was editing OSM through an executable desktop version of Potlatch today and suddenly was unable to access the main server. I tried opening OSM on all of my web browsers and could not access the site at all after that. I can access it via my mobile phone data and my account seems to still be active. I'm unsure as to what happened or if I violated any terms of usage set forward by OSM itself. If I did, I would like to apologize for that and I will stop using my desktop version of Potlatch. I was only doing so as OSM recently dropped the program and ID doesn't work nearly as well for me.

From what you're saying, I doubt that you have violated any terms of use - it's more likely to be a routing cockup between your PC and OSM.
