Bad Gateway/ "You have been blocked."
#1
So I have an account on TPB and I have uploaded three torrents without issue. 

About five days ago I went to upload a fourth, and I am getting a "bad gateway" error. I've been trying periodically to upload this torrent, and each time I'm greeted with a 502 bad gateway error. In the meantime, I've noticed that other people have been able to upload torrents, so I think this is something on my end. 
The most recent attempt gives me this: 

Cloudflare Ray ID: 331296e406011846
 

I have tried this on Chrome and Safari and also Chrome in incognito mode, so I don't think it is a plugin. 
I have tried resetting my DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4, no change. 

I did a traceroute and it shows that network traffic is getting through to upl.thepiratebay.org. 
 
10  nyk-bb4-link.telia.net (62.115.112.114)  173.512 ms *  124.682 ms
11  nyk-b2-link.telia.net (213.155.130.30)  129.861 ms  33.727 ms  31.698 ms
12  cloudflare-ic-301663-nyk-b2.c.telia.net (213.248.77.162)  35.787 ms  32.790 ms  33.769 ms
13  104.31.18.30 (104.31.18.30)  31.611 ms  32.447 ms  34.149 ms


So after all that didn't work, I tried going through TorBrowser. The first time I tried, it wouldn't keep me logged in- every time I hit 'upload torrent' it took me back to the login screen. But, I persisted and eventually made it to the upload page. 
I filled in all the information and hit submit, and this time I get "sorry, you have been blocked."

"This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data."

I've tried using a different tor path, but so far I've used Sweden, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, all with the same result. 
Two most recent give me this:

Cloudflare Ray ID: 331289e2c83014eb
Cloudflare Ray ID: 3312a453d95568d8

I've attached the torrent file, on the off chance that has anything to do with it.

Additional information: using a friend's paid VPN service, I tried to upload using a number of VPN sites and got a 504 "gateway timeout" error.

I think I might actually just be cursed.

I get the same thing, all of the time when using both a VPN and TOR. I have pretty much given up on uploading because I always get that security notice page.

I'm also getting this when trying to upload through Tor. If I try to upload through the Onion service by appending /upload to the URL, I get sent to the non-Onion page when clicking upload.

You mean you get sent to the upload page when you click upload.

There is only one upload page. It is not on the onion domain.

I tried to enter the URL manually (http://uj3wazyk5u4hnvtk.onion/upload) to see if that worked.

You are right. Anyway, I suppose it's a sidetrack. The real upload page (non-onion) doesn't appear to work currently, as reported by the OP.

No, the real upload page (non-onion) is working currently, as proven by the continuing appearance of new torrents on TPB.

Sorry, to be more accurate: Some users are reporting that it doesn't work, with the common factor appearing to be attempting to upload through Tor or VPN.
