Looks like 2.0 is about to roll out very imminently and Legend has been the guinea pig.
Just for your information of course this is the message he receives when he attempts to log on............

The Web server you are attempting to reach has a list of IP addresses that are not allowed to access the Web site, and the IP address of your browsing computer is on this list.
Please try the following:
Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to view this directory or page.
HTTP Error 403.6 - Forbidden: IP address of the client has been rejected.
Internet Information Services (IIS)
Technical Information (for support personnel)
Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 403.
Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled About Security, Limiting Access by IP Address, IP Address Access Restrictions, and About Custom Error Messages.

No friendlybob I asked him what message he had as it was difficult to explain to others without having the info in front of me.Glad to have being assistance in you losing your arse tho :)
No -he cant post at all -if he does get past the log on he is immediately zapped so therefore every IP he could possibly have -given that they are roaming-is banned.

I agree with ummm, I have said in the past IP banning is a good idea, but with so many people using internet cafes, workplaces and libraries, not to mention people having more than one computer at home, it could be problematic dishing out a general ban.
I suppose the benefit of moderating full time is that the arguements are nipped in the bud without having to ban large sections of people.

I've read it all.
I still stick by what I say about Leggy. He's had no chance to defend himself, Zapped completely.
When some of us've asked for vile trolls to be removed, I had an email to say that unfortunately this couldn't be done - certainly not until AB2 started.
What happens????? I rest my case. This's all been dealt with in the wrong way.
