and yes, 1 account per user.. why should anybody need more than 1 account except for what dave_l mentioned.

if you become stalked, it's dead easy to ask an admin to change your username etc. but that won't stop a stalker, neither will creating a new account, because many people tend to post the same way, and that person will inevitably get the attention of the stalker again because the person will still be posting in the same way as before.. it will only be a matter of time.

Would that be the same suggestion from several people, or several suggestions from the same person?

The reality is, it will have no more effect than trying to ban a spam-mer if they decide to spam.

Again just my opinion, yours may vary.
BS


Not just for enforcing bans, also for recognizing someone for good work.
Some dream of success, while others wake up and work for it.

nice, at once a positive attitude.
Let's solve the problems/questions and we won't have to ban anymore, only to promote good works and sharing attitudes.

just to avoid that some stupid person use it.
Nothing else.
It was made with the same intention as the one you can find in the users preferences of your site (if you are doing some)

Re: Terms of use and XOOPSiquette modification

Recognizing good works should be attached to the nic the good works were done in and according to what the author desired.

Multiple nics have nothing to do with recognizing good works, any more than multiple nics have anything to do with giving recognition to bad works.

What one considers BAD WORKS, the same action may be considered a service to the community by another.

Case in point

GIJOE when he came on as Herko, on his account, to point out graphically the security flaw in the system. Ticked everyone off but made a positive change.

We are now encouraged to USE his module for protection.

LOOK AT THE MESSAGE, don't condemn the message bearer.

Again, my opinion.

ALSO my research showed that the major break-in of this system that resulted in the destroying of the docs was someone left the INSTALL DIRECTORY ENABLED and a user simply reinstalled the system. I don't view that as a major hack job, I consider it stupidity on the part of the one who left the install directory in tack.

Again, this is just my opinion based on independent online research and it seems as plausible to me as any other explanation I have heard so far.
