I block his IP's but he change it constantly (seems he uses different proxies). He attack forum in the night time when admins are out of forum and block access of members to forum on a whole night.
He do it a few last days.
Please help me to solve this problem. Maybe it's possible to limit quantity of sessions per one IP or something like this. It's very important.
Many thanks.
