Description

I recently created a new account on this Gitea instance. After registering, I linked it to my GitHub account through the provided option. Everything worked fine initially, but after three days, I found my account blocked, showing the error message "Sign in prohibited."

I haven't performed any unusual actions or configurations during this time. I am unsure if the problem is related to linking my GitHub account or if my account was flagged for another reason.

Could you help me identify and resolve this issue?

Is this instance owned by yourself?

Apologies, @polsegu you are the second out of thousands accounts that have signed up with a Google sites URL and not be spam (not a reflection on you, it's just that spammers use that domain as well because it has Google in it and so it gets a boost for seo). So a lot of spam checkers just flag that domain automatically, including the one I use.

I will reactivate your account and put a flag on it to not be restricted again.
