The addon allows to set one or more usergroups who you wish to annoy. Users in these groups who
browse your forum will experience random, annoying effects (blinking text, backward text etc).
This makes for a fun alternative to banning, and can actually prove more effective: a banned user
will often just re-register under a different name; with Sadistic, the user may just decide that
your site is buggy, and give in.

Just added two members to the sadistic group should have a laugh within the next few days. They will be sending their puters in for repair when I have finished with them.

BTW I tested it out and couldn't get back in to my site, so I had to use my other computer to get back into my admin. (Thought I should mention it)

Great mod.

Personally I think it's neater to make it work on a user group, rather than individual members. Just create a new user group, and add the individuals to it.

Sola, when you say 'certain browser plugins', I'm curious why this would be useful. If there's a good reason, I'll see about adding it to the next version

Hmmmm... Couple this with the miserable users hack and we have a real winner here.

Just wondering, I have some users coming in through proxy servers to spam the site. So when I try to look up their IP Address's, nothing shows up. Any way to get this to recognize some proxy server and if so, forward those users to another place?

Same question here guys... how do we configure which usergroup to annoy?

As it stands, it is not a configurable option to change to any specific usergroup

I am using 4.1.0 PL2 so I have no idea why the post before me the fellow states it works as it does not as of this post.

I've just tried installing it on a 4.1 PL 2 site, and couldn't see any problems.

Can you clarify exactly what is going wrong? In the options page, do you see the list of existing usergroups? Are you able to highlight one?
