M.S. Gold Member Username: Nd4spd18 Northwest PA Post Number: 6189 Registered: Jul-06	Posted on Wednesday, February 13, 2008 - 06:05 GMT Is it possible to ban users based on IP address or something. Take a look in the subwoofer car audio section and see all the spam threads. Something really needs to be done so these guys can't just create a new account and come back, is this possible?

We have done that in the past to malicious users. However, we've seen malicious users re-register from a different computer using a different username and valid e-mail address.
