I've always wondered if the entire IP address gets banned and thus they can't access the RX at all. Or do they just lose their handle and it just becomes a minor annoyance for them in which they can just create a new user? Thanks for any info. I didn't know where else to put this post but I am very curious about it.

The poster name is usually banned and we keep an eye for the same IP posting. The IP can be blocked if it becomes a serious abuse.

Thanks for the response General. And no, I'm not getting any ideas or anything like that. ;)

Besides the General, you should ask jjgold. He's been banned more times than you've posted. :)

Banning the IP address would work for AOL accounts, though. AOL uses a pool of proxy addresses, so you may get several different posters appearing to come from the same AOL IP address, even though they have nothing to do with each other. Also, with AOL, your IP address can change during the session.

Java is correct in respect to AOL. More often than not the similar agendas are found before any IP tracing or matching needs looked at.

I can tell you what goes on Son

1. The General usually first deletes my post

2. Next comes it seems an auto genrated e-mail from him that read exactly like this.

" Your posting recently warranted this response. It has come to our attention that one or some of your posts have become a detriment to the board and we at The Rx promote a positive and honest outlook of the offshore community. We value your posts but when the become unwarranted attacks against different parties we must step in. If your behavior continues steps will be aken to abolish you from site. Thanks for your understading."

3. I then IM The General about it and he says "jj I do not know what you are taklking about" I say General stop the fukkin bull **** of playing dumb. He says I am busy, later.

4. I then keep posting and try to start **** with General saying he is barreled in from playing theponies and calling him overweight and ****.

5. He phones Kenny and every other mod like I am some fukkin outlaw and they take a vote and ban me.

6. I get an e-mail saying I was terminated.

7. Get this boys, I get an 4000 word e-mail from Kenny saying I broke the rules. I swear this has to be auto generated because it always starts.

"Dear poster " and it is 11 pages of bull **** about honest and integrity. It had to be lie from the fukkin 40's.

8. That is the basics here at the RX and blocking of IP''s is rare as too many have same type in deifferent regions

JJ, please stop hinting at my weight.

Your last warning.

Thanks

One other thing happens when a mod bans a poster: some respect from the other former banned posters. :)

If you are not controversial enough to get banned at least once, then you are probably not posting anything interesting. (JJ suffers from being too interesting.)

Lies will get you banned, but so can the truth. (Some advertisers are more worried about a damaging truth than an annoying lie.)
