Yes, there is. And, I will say that people who operate a website and don't tell their users they've done something wrong before limiting their accounts, then provide only a cryptic error message that doesn't indicate what the infraction is, don't have it.
Specifically, if you're going to penalize people for doing something, tell them that you're doing it, rather than hide behind some cryptic, "technical difficulties"-sounding error message. Treat people like adults, and I suspect you'll have better results most of the time.
