I agree with you cods, that is disgusting. The problem is when people get banned, like longweekend did last week they come back with a sock, like longweekend did last week. This time I'd say the person that wrote that is corporate whitey who is often banned, or matty who has also been banned recently. What we need to have done is peoples IP address needs to be banned, not just the user name, that is why they manage to post here while they are banned.

Most ppl have dynamic IPs. To ban their IP you would have to ban everyone on their ISP in the area.

Cool, that would get rid of their sox too. Grin

On a serious note, many forums do ban IP addresses.

Why ban everyone who says something you don't like. The person that is offended by it should just read past that particular post and move on.
Free speech rules!

There will be enough banning when we get the internet filter.

It's the internet, people will troll you and they will say things to get people riled up.

If every little thing that offends you on the internet got banned, there'd be little left to read.

Ignore stupidity.

You're right, almost everyone has a dynamic address these days. Banning by IP address is pointless.

BUT!

The address you get will stay with you for as long as you have a connection to the ISP. It'll often even survive short dropouts. So how often does your ADSL modem reconnect to the ISP? Not often. Most people tend to have the same IP address for many, many days, possibly weeks or months.

When a sock starts to post crud, it isn't hard to check what other posters have used that IP address. If there's a match with a banned poster then the sock can be banned immediately. This isn't a sure-fired solution (and yes, there are ways around it) but it'd provide some measures.

I am with iinet and my IP changes every 2-3 days whether i am online or not (and i usually am which is infinitely annoying). iinet is pretty big ISP i cant be the only one.

That seems bizarre. Yet, now that you mention it I haven't really checked since I got swapped to my current ISP (also iinet). I'll have to see if they're doing the same thing to me.
