no ive checked the cache .xml file said i was banned ...<error>You are banned</error>....and this has been goin on for the last couple of days , so once you get banned xml in youre cache you always gotta delete it first then wait about 1 day and then retry ? ..since ive had this since the last couple of days thou i asume if i dont delete the banned xml i get rebanned?....until i delete the banned xml and wait as said?......-.-'
....how in hell can you get banned this is seriously ridiculous they need a server upgrade if its this bad ..... -.-'
p.s: its not like its a problem i can simply switch my ip i got enough since i use a vpn -.-'...thou this shouldnt even be happening

@hentai23:
You indeed have to delete you the cache. Else XBMC will look at the cache folder, sees there already is a file and reads it. But of course it is unable to get any data from it.
So to make sure XBMC will not use the empty files in cache you should empty the scraper cache.
You also will not get banned again if there's an xml file with the "you are banned" info in your cache. Only XBMC will not look any further than that file if the cache hasn't expired.

exactly as said clear the cache and wait for a couple days then retry and should work
but for a quick fix just change youre ip and you can scrape once again problem free no biggy if you are using a paid vpn xD
or perhaps someone could integrate a better solution cause i can imagine this pissing off quite a few anime lovers that have more than 10 anime to scrape and ..bam !! ban -.-'
making them have to wait for 1 or 2 days to be able to rescrape ..not funny at all i would say -.-'

Yeah, it's not ideal.
But then again you will only encounter this with the initial scan. I haven't had any problems with my daily use.
