    Solved Banning Mac Or ISP Address

    Post by Bully@Wiiplaza January 16th 2013, 9:02 pm

    Let´s say some member has a dynamic IP address and has access to disposable e-mail addresses. Is there really no way I can stop him? The Internet Service Provider is always the same, also the Mac address. But there´s no option in the admin panel to ban those.

    Any ideas on doing exactly that or is it impossible (currently)?

    Thank you. Wink

    There should be three options to ban a member: Username, IP address, and email address.

    I know but none of them help to keep people off permanently.

    You will just have to continue banning each new account created by this member. You could set up registration where an administrator has to activate the account.
