Here is a 3.6 cookie ban script. If a user is in a specified usergroup, it will set a cookie and then add any existing or new aliases to a specified banned usergroup.

So these people are smart enough to use proxies, smart enough to go into their cookies folder and delete the proper cookie, but aren't smart enough to clear all cookies?

Why not just shut off registration for a while? Why not ban them posting images until they hit a certain amount of posts? There is certainly many things you can do, but this seems like it will fail.

Yet, it has little use for actually keeping someone from the site from coming back to post again. Worse, for reading access (especially competitors, as a simple and free workaround for that is possible, despite proxy bans).

Persistent trolls know the tricks of cookie based bans. And the ones that aren't, weren't expecting to be around for long anyway (making the hair pulling exercise of finding that "true blue" cookie based ban script worthless, as the troll made you work to keep him out -- he'll be the last one laughing).

For trolls registration moderation/private groups/forums with IP access only are the best way to keep them out. With the private route, they can't read that forum's content, either if you vett those requesters' access (something important for those who are worried about competition snooping, and having a "friend" leak content).

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
