While I agree that IP bans are largely useless, it wouldn't be your router you're going to need to reset to get around them.

Unless whoever is dishing them out is putting 192.x.x.x addresses in the ban list, but that's not going to work out well. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That wouldn't work, and neither would MAC addresses. Proxies are easy to come by and not difficult to set up either. It's got to be tied to the account (and probably at the login server?) otherwise it wouldn't work.

I have a dynamic IP via DSL, and simply rebooting the modem would give me another IP address, sometimes drastically different.

You guys think too small. I would ban entire class C subnets. Proxies aren't going to last long. Router resets aren't going to help for long. Soon you'd have a nice swath of the internet banned and the vast majority of the asshats with it.
The guys running the server don't owe anyone so people can bitch and whine all they want. If some innocents fall by the wayside, so be it.

I'm sure you'd feel the exact same way if you were one of the innocents by the wayside.

So what part is garbage? The part about the executable being a keylogger?

So what part of that was about staff RMT? Do you deny there are ads on the forum?
Praise to whomever deleted you before I read this. To begin with, we don't distribute executables. Go take a look at your folder. You have no idea how google advertising works, and you appear to be quite a weak-minded individual or trying to troll for no reason. You have no problem spouting nonsense you don't understand, much less checking to see if we actually distribute an .exe. So far, everything I've seen from you has been garbage. Give me a link to your volunteer hobby's webpage when you get a chance. If you have legitimate concerns, PM them to me. Banned.

edit: mailinator really? Just stop.
