What is the best way to handle banning of users with ip address that change?

Should I load one of the hacks?

Thanks

If I would ban users with dynamic IPs, my board would be empty except 1 moderator ...

I understand. I guess I was looking for advice actually.

Andreas · #4 10-17-2005, 01:53 PM

That was an advice

Or in other words: I recommend not to install such a Hack, as most users will have dynamic IPs.

What do you do when you have someone you just have to ban?

I ban his account. If he comes back with a new account the new account gets banned.
Not much else there that could be done
