    So their policy says, if an ISP has one scalper, we'll block their

        My guess is you have or had sometime in the long distant past
        a scalper operating on your network, using automated ticket
        purchase bots.

        If you still have that scalper around, you might want to turf
        him.  If he’s ancient history, saying so might induce them to
        remove the block.
