@ vins Problem with blocking IP addresses is, any half-wit can jump on a proxy server.

And a lot of people are on dynamic IP addresses, so the Admins would have to filter a whole block of IP addresses, potentially causing other "productive" members to not be able to get on here.

There are a few other ways to ensure someone you've blocked stays away, but again, it's a matter of cleaning out cookies and changing IP addresses... along with a user name.
