That's a tactic I can encourage and at one point used but to my dismay not everyone can be tolerant enough to ignore other peoples loud opinions.

It ends up being that some forumers get emotional, they contact me, I say to ignore the problem and then they go in an all emotional bout spamming the forum with long emotional tirades (including bouts about their "tyrannical" admin). It spreads until one voice becomes a dozen and eventually even I get sick of it.

For you see, the perfume I'm wearing attracts some real nut-cases and more for me than for the good forum denziens I want to ban some people utterly from my site.

At this point I think a filter to include only isp specific e-mail addys would help narrow down the forumers from any old joe on the net, to someone who paid for net access.

If anyone has a list of any sort, please post it on the forum. Thanks
