Nadal_Rulz · 08-10-2005, 06:23 AM

allowed or only one per IP Address?

Why would you want and/or need multiple usernames? Sounds kind of fishy.....

To pretend you're different people--which defintely goes on...

You know there's no way to effectively ban by IP address...most all home users have dynamic IP's, meaning if you just reboot your system or your cable/dsl modem you'll get a new IP... If you ban a certain IP address belonging to, say, Comcast cable, then if someone else got that same IP they'd be banned the 1st time they tried to sign up. They could ban email addresses from signing up, but you can always go get another one of those too. Meaning if someone really wants to be on a board, there's no way to stop them unfortunately.

Part of me dies whenever I see The Dark Knight/El Zilcho post multiple times on his own pointless threads using his 2 different names. That kid needs Ritalin or something. Someone should delete one of them... or both of them.

Use your ignore list man....it's really helpful, specifically in instances like that.

Good call Craig, I'll give that a shot.
