Banned from Master server? Ban sweep, possibly?

Hey there, so i'm a horrific n00b when it comes to things like these(forums and such), so please forgive me if this is an issue already being taken care of, but i am having some trouble. It seems that as of last night, i was not banned from the master server. I took this to my advantage, trying to make a network game of Brutal Doom work for me and my dad across town, but i could not do any such thing. Now, i know that Zandronum has a high tolerance for abuse, but given that i couldn't even get my server up, i doubt i really had enough time to step on anyone's toes. I mean, the worst thing i did was name my server "SEXBOX" at one point, but that IS the name of the computer i was running it from, so i thought nothing of it. But, again, since my server was not up on the master list, i doubt anyone even had time to see that(except maybe the mods).

Last night, i decided to call it quits after trying my port forwarding, disabling my firewall, i even tried hosting the SEXBOX on the DMZ, all to no avail. This morning, i plugged in my old Linksys WRT54G with DD-WRT, just to see if the new router would allow me to pass the UDP traffic through the firewall, only to find out that i am apparently banned from broadcasting to the master server. Again, i don't remember doing anything horrifically wrong, and if I need to name my server something other than SEXBOX, i completely will(i was just using it so my dad and friends could easily identify the server), but in order for me to continue troubleshooting the issue, i need to be able to broadcast to master.

Thanks for your time, and any and all help getting me un-banned would be greatly appreciated. ANy information you may need from me, such as IP addresses, i will happily provide(in PMs, im very very scared of posting my WAN IP on a public forum). Again, thanks for the help :)
