I would call that "orange" but it's not Lego orange, which is much
brighter.

I would start by reading the TOS you agreed to when you signed up on the site.
https://www.bricklink.com/v3/terms_of_service.page
Pay particular attention to Section 17.
I have gotten 1 minute blocks back when I was least favoriting 10,000 stores
(at 9,653 right now), because I was loading stores so fast.
If this has been going on for a month, the problem isn't going to fix itself.
You must have been doing some hard scraping to where the site considered it a
DDOS attack.
I would not repeat this behavior in the future. The API is provided, learn how
to use it.
Here are 5 options. This isn't even a full list.
1.) Send endless emails letting Bricklink staff know you were abusing their site.
Probably doesn't matter because you are unlikely to get a response that solves
your problem.
2.) Change your IP address. If your router doesn't have this feature, buy
another router.
3.) Request your provider change your IP address. You didn't try hard enough.
4.) Switch providers.
5.) Use a VPN with coupon for $25-$30 US a year ($2 a month).
Youtube and Google are your friends.

In one photo on the catalog they look orange. When you click the photo, they
look Nougat. I placed an order recently from a fellow Canuck, and received arms
that definitely looked more orange than nougat. Is this a known issue?
I've illustrated the issue with this crappy photo, but you see what I'm
getting at.

one of him on my desk, holding a dark nougat wand.
Nougat is a pretty orange color, but I don't think you'd mistake them.

Are those nougat hands? They look more like light nougat, but all of this is
very hard to tell on a camera phone.

No, it's a question of excessive number of queries, server load, etc.
See BL Terms?
I guess if it's minor, your IP will be unbanned tomorrow after BrickLink
midnight 00:00 EDT, in 5+ hours.

I assume they were blocked from using the API. They still have buying and selling
privileges.
|
Oh OK, but then, did they read the API Terms?
I'd say no.

I've had reasons to contact BL in the past, and found it near impossible
to contact anyone who actually works for BL. They want you to use the "Community"
resource, good luck. (credit where credits due, the "Community" does
help sometimes, just a bummer to rely on complete strangers for technical BL
help instead of the company, but that's what it is.)

| | Hello,
Firstly, I apologize for the trouble.
I added a Set by mistake to "parts" , and I was hoping someone could
delete all the parts so it's not counting them in my parts inventory? The
8 sets in My Collection are correct, just not all the parts from the Space set.
Thank you for your support.

You can delete the items by clicking the trashcan.
