Religious guy (AmyBlueBMW05) just popped up. I banned him. I did this by username. However he will surely be back. Should I do IP? If so when? Banning by IP might affect other 2+2'ers btw.
Just covering all ends... |

It would only work if it was a static IP.

Nearly all ISPs provide "dynamic" IPs for their customers, which periodically change and are recycled between different customers. Further, if you are behind a firewall at work, everyone from your company can look like they're coming from the same IP. |

Banning the ISP would be awful, because I heard this Jesus freak uses AOL. How many 2+2ers would be banned if you banned AOL?
