ok heres the deal... i run a website for cars and at times there is a troll that comes on and is worth banning. i tried banning his ip with no luck i even made group called banned with no access to any module but the the thing that makes that one not work is the fact i have the remember me hack. so that works when the person logs out or deletes cookies is there anything else i can do?

Not much you can do if they are persistant. If you got his IP and can tell who's his ISP then you can send them the info. That kind of behavior is usually against the ISP's use agreement.

If they are smart enough to use one of the many proxy surf's out there, you can ban the ip's to those as they appear.

Maybe move to an admin view approval for newbs for a bit?

The only thing i have found that works for me is using hack.

I had a problem with some trolls and implementing this hack did the trick for me. It is not an instant answer to your problems but it may go some way in helping you to stop these culprits.

Hope this info is of some help to you
