Another way to get on their block list is to have a lot of users behind a single NAT or proxy IP address. In my experience they blocked single IPs. The first time it was easy to explain that there were 30,000 users behind the single address and get the block cleared. After that it became more difficult to get someone to listen. In one case I gave up because we were about to make a data center change and the blocked address would no longer be used. However, I don't believe that the problem ever came back, maybe because we had fewer users behind individual IP addresses, or because they finally note that the netblocks were owned by $LARGE_CORPORATION.

My guess is you have or had sometime in the long distant past a scalper operating on your network, using automated ticket purchase bots. If you still have that scalper around, you might want to turf him. If he’s ancient history, saying so might induce them to remove the block. --srs On 06/02/17, 8:45 AM, "nanog-bounces () nanog org on behalf of mike.lyon () gmail com" <nanog-bounces () nanog org on behalf of mike.lyon () gmail com> wrote: Yup, i have a /22 that has the same problem.
