Hate to admit it, but in the early days spammers were classic as Hell when someone rage quit. This guy got banned and he spammed our server message board with porn for weeks.

There is no way short of locking someone in a cage to keep them from getting around any attempt to block them from spamming your servers. It isn't possible to sostop them, you can only discourage the less intent ones. Your ip will change if you disconnect your router for a few hours or if you call your is and request an ip refresh. You can change your mac address for free with a computer program or for $10 with a new network interface card. You can change you machine id by using a direct computer. I know this and I am a basic level user not a system admin or it professional... YouTube and reddit can help you get around just about anything

There's other ways to detect spammers besides just their IP.

I made a level 1 druid named "cockmagic" the other day (pras Kustt) and Sirken summoned me and name changed me within 30 seconds of the character being created.

And not just porn, really gross tranny porn [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Not that any porn belongs here, but that stuff was awful.

I imagine they look for keywords on a special list whenever anyone creates a new character, and they pounce unless your name is something fantasy-like (eg. Feroicockitam). Now if only they would update that list with the 200 other most popular words that don't belong in character names ...

Heh, I'm not quite sure being grossed out by trans porn makes me transphobic: I'm grossed out by hardcore S&M and scat porn, but I have nothing against people who enjoy hardcore S&M or scat. To each their own, just don't throw it into a gif and post it on my elf sim forum.

ok sure, comparing them to feces is pretty tolerant.
