The person could be masking there true IP address or using a proxy to get around the IP banning.

You must have changed something in the forum code, or they are using IP masking in which case in the present version IP banning will not work.

It's not the database, more likely you have either changed something in a file or used a mod, or skin that has effected the IP banning feature, or they are masking their IP address.
