Inadvertent Ban of Several Members - Problem Corrected

[Hawk]

I offer sincere apologies to at least 6 members who were inadvertently affected by a ban on August 28th because their IP addresses were in the same range as Urvashi, a spammer banned on that same day.  The IP range ban was inadvertently checked on that ban.  It appears that at least 5 other members were caught in that IP range ban all of who are valued members of this forum. Several are top-posting members.

A search of the error logs indicate the users that got caught in that IP bad included at least the following members that I identified:
Tyrael
RedBullMaster
ProjectPD
Arthur
MarkDS
Roddy

The spammer was from India.  One of the affected members reports that he is from India the rest report being from the UK.  
If anyone has any contact with these members please relay this information to them.  I am trying to contact them through email one at a time.
