Banned

I was just wondering as to what happens when somebody gets banned from the site. Is the individual free to re-join under a different name or is their IP address blocked?

Just curious, thats all.

Re: Banned

Re: Banned

IP bans only work if you have a static IP. Most people's IP changes each time there modem/router/whatever connects to the net.

Re: Banned

Mine is static.

If a banned person tries to join again with a different IP and they are discovered to be the same person they'll only end up banned again. It has happened.

Some people have been banned for asking why people have been banned

I think thats a matter between the mods and the members and not to be posted on site.
