Jelsoft Code for banning?
 
Hi guys, was not sure where to post this and was not allowed to create a new thread on another board so here goes: I am currently on a forum that is Jelsoft and the Admin seems not able to ban and make it permanent. Am I correct in thinking that Jelsoft is affiliated with VBulletin and that there should be code to permanently ban an IP address?

Jelsoft was the company that owned vBulletin before Internet Brands. Internet Brans purchased Jelsoft (and vBulletin) in 2009 I believe. The Jelsoft name is still used in old copyright notices.

Yes vBulletin has the ability to ban IP addresses, Support however is only given to license holders to the actual license holder would need to register here and verify their license to ask for specifics on how to do it or trouble shoot if it isn't working.

Also note however it is a fairly trivial process for a user to change their IP address (or hide it) if they have any computer/networking skills so the Admin may attempt to ban someone but if they are uncooperative it is harder than you think.

Thank you, BirdOPrey.
