Agent ONE Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 As we now have a new board which is based on totally different code, I would imagine that all those idiots that got kicked can come running back if they are so inclined... I hope I am wrong. - The Major Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abombz!! Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 What worries me more is that some of them might use alternate usernames to cause trouble. I can think of a few usernames they could use. <_< P.S. Major... how are you handling now that the forum doesn't indicate if the post was edited or not?

Pat Payne Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Not much we can do about that, unless Shawn or the mods can port the old ban list over here. As Abombz said on another thread, it's like we've gone temporarily to anarchy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the white drew carey Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 OK... I may be wrong here, but didn't the Mods simply block the offending party's IP or something like that? If so, and Invision has the same capability, I wouldn't be surprised if it's already been done. But, then again, what's so wrong with Yo-Yo's?

No. Some ISPs have shared IPs... so if you ban one, you ban everyone that uses that ISP. Example... AOL, everyone has the same IP. I think the mods simply blocked the members from using the boards.

Example... AOL, everyone has the same IP. I think the mods simply blocked the members from using the boards. and some people have dynamic IP's so they never have the same one after they disconnect and reconnect Hybridchild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll just have to wait and see if any of the banned come knocking. But then again, due to the anonymity of the web, they could completely slip by and none of us would ever be the wiser.

Roy Focker Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Well right now I'm powerless to stop anyone. We do have old records and data on the um... 'yo-yos'. I think it should be possible to adjust this board to. Although I think none of the mods have access right now. If anyone gets pass. I think they will have to try their best be good. It's not like we won't ban people again. B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Were there OLD MWForums users that were actually banned for lifetime? I've been on the wrong end of a one week topic ban......and that was pretty bad enough. Besides, if anyone WERE to start trouble I'm sure (fingers crossed) we'd be able to handle it.

muswp1 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 The last thing this brand new board need is those RT.com trolls (I am not mentioning their names, but we know who they are) to decide to return, especially with no mods around. There has to be a way to keep those yo-yo's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 if people come here to start trouble they will be banned just as they were in the other forums there is no need for this 'war' between MW and RT.com-its an absolute waste of time and does nothing but make people rethink wanting any part of the macross/robotech fandom S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Focker Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 No offensive to anyone but the Administration and Moderators banned several people and a new board doesn't mean an automatic appeal from the big house. The Moderators were planning to review the 'list' at the end of the month. Any one who was banned that post before notice to return might risk their chance.
