Banning question

[rjav8r]

I would like to ban a member but he/she resides on an IP address that is possibly used by others, ie. it's at a puplic terminal such as a workplace.

How can I go about banning only him/her

As listing his/her xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx address might ban the targeted user occassionally, it might also ban another incorrectly.

You cant......in all reality you ban the machine......not the person. Maybe if the user had a different profile on the machine, you could use cookies but thats not 100% secure.......

You can ban the IP, but if it is dynamic, then you could ban other people as well, that is always a problem.

You can always just take away their posting privelages though. That does work in many cases.

thank you

thats what I wound up doing - I created a new user group entitled Banned and removed all but view board privileges
