vBulletin by default can already ban users by IP addresses easily by inserting one per line. What's the benefit of using this?

[Simon Lloyd]

The benefit of this is that you can add your own custom redirect message, your own custom redirect site, you can ban IP ranges like: 127.0.0 - 127.0.100 you can get email notification (beta) if designated IP's try to access your site.
