Just curious, is it possible to get your IP address blocked from boards.ie ??

    If so it is unfair that other people at the same IP address should suffer for other people's trolling / abuse etc :confused:

    I think but am not positive that they can block MAC addresses.

    Do you have a static IP address? No didn't think so because very have..so banning an ip address is waste of time because you will have a new one next time you reboot your connection..I also doubt boards can aquire your hardware address..its not transmitted in IP packets...could be wrong mind

    I would assume the mods here have an ip checker which can link any non masked ip addresses with any other that uses the same ip . They also should be able to tell your isp, and your general location ,.so although mistakes can happen they are rare

    dunno...........could be fun though, go to friends house, make new account...spam, troll and annoy to your heats content. Watch as he cries himself to sleep knowing he will never gain access to boards again:D But that just might be me

    It's technically possible.

    The Mods don't, Admins do, possibly CMods do. (If I remember correctly)
