I hope that in the process of banning you also blocked his IP address. We wouldn't want him back under another name. Guys like that make it hard for the good guys and smears the name of the Luger Forum.

Dok, I don't believe I (we) have that exact capability, so I figure the moderators can keep track of who posts what and keep them in line.

I am pretty sure we can only ban the entire IP range, not a specific, so, if he was an AOL member, well, I would ban a bunch of innocent folks.

On gunboards this is a problem, because there are 10's of thousands of members, so someone gets banned, they use their work email or IP and get back on. The only way is to monitor the boards on a frequent basis, you know, like I do and if you see a familar name, you ban them. The old cavet emptor (sp) has to be in play, we just try to minimize what happens. The P38 forum has a good for sale policy, which I have adopted. replacing mine which was fine, but this one went into more detauil.
