Hi
I have this member of my forum that I have already banned twice by his IP address but he keeps coming back with a completely different IP address and different user name. I don't want to have vet each member when they register which is currently done by an email which they have to use to complete the registration process.

Any suggestions on what I can do to stop this idiot from coming back to my forums?

-------------
regards
Ian

i too have had this problem, he was a spammer advertising his website so i have emailed the company to ask them to stop, so far so good.

before that i just banned the ip using a * in the last digits to ban the ip range, and now with vers 8 i also ban the domain extensions as he was always using free domains like usa.com or pilot.com or similar.

hope that helps
