| lordweird Quote | Reply | | IP Banning posted on: 8/31/2004 11:03:19 AM I recently banned a troll by the name of nigelfoo, by IP and e-mail. Today, he had registered under the name of evil_spirit, from the same IP, and posted on the board (http://www.chatarea.com/DarkFuckingMetalForum). Does IP-banning only apply to that one user account, or anyone trying to access my forum from that IP-address? Thanks in advance for an answer, J. |

replied on: 8/31/2004 11:53:13 AM I can't be 100% sure, but it did show the same IP in the members' list. So I assume he's using the same computer. Just wondering; it's not a big problem to ban him ever now and then, might even be good since it makes me feel omnipotent

IP Banning
replied on: 10/5/2004 9:43:04 PM I have a question about banning a member. I used to have a site at onther place and I had a member who caused a lot of problems. I have just opened a new forum here and I have already found she has joined twice under different names and emails, I found her IP was the same so I banned both members. Now I find out she is calling other members and saying that I can't ban her and that she will have my forums shut down. My question is...can she do this? I really don't think she can, otherwise what's the sense of the banning option? But I am paranoid as this person is really really crazy. Sorry for the long story. Thanks. |

replied on: 10/6/2004 5:23:59 AM At the end of the day, only you as the society owner or Sharky (since he owns ChatArea) can have it shut down, and I see no reason why Sharky would. She's just doing this to stir up trouble. |
