Banning by IP Address
marcio
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHello,I just started a new group and am feeling that this one will attract some people because of its theme. While I'm not needing it for now, one never knows, so I thought I'd ask since I haven't found anything about it. If a member turns out to be a disturber and if I need to go by that route, how can I accomplish that? That is, how can I ban an IP address from my group? Your help is much appreciated. Cheers, AKA Starboy Sent from a galaxy far, far away. |

Hello, you have to write to Mark about this. The address to do so is below. For you, most people only want to band via member.

Bruce,
Thanks for the answer :) Actually, I hope I don't need to ban anyone at all, nor by email nor by whatever it may be, but as I said, one never knows. Anyway, I feel being a group owner is going to be an interesting adventure for me. Cheers,

Just FWIW . . .
Another option is for a member who is a 'disturber' to have his posting privileges set to 'Moderated' status or to 'No Post' status as a means to control any undesirable disturbance posts s/he might make. It also sends a reasonably clear message to that member. HTH Paul M. CostaRicaLiving /g/CostaRicaLiving == |
