This user was formally banned from metabullet.com for abusing the service, and as a result, has been banned here also. Quite why this person thought it was ok to come here under the guise of an account he’d previously used at metabullet.com and hope I wouldn’t notice is beyond me.

If you abuse my services once, you won’t get to use them again - period.

As a reminder, the policies surrounding this service, and it’s usage can be found here

Try sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/ping then attempt the ping again
