    IP Bans...

    Gree has started banning subnets which is causing numerous unbanned players to not access the forums.. I've run some forums, so I know what they're doing. They are doing the easy way of blocking players that can get a new IP each time they log on. The problem is, while they are blocking every IP that a banned person can get, they are blocking legit forum members.

    Gree, Quit being lazy!!!!

    It's not a proxie thing, it's a subnet thing.

    You're IP might be 123.456.789.123 If I wanted to block your IP, I'd block 123.456.789.123 But if you rebooted and got 123.456.789.124, my ip ban didn't work.

    So If I'm lazy, rather than blocking the IP you keep logging on with, I'd block 123.456.789.

    Notice how I didn't add the last subnet? I just blocked quite of few Innocent bystanders, but stopped that one guy. LAZY!

    If you say so, but the mods know exactly what I'm talking about. Why else am I blocked when accessing the forum from LTE, but can access just fine from wifi (different ISP). Especially when I've never logged on from LTE

    (On at my university at the moment) Yes, my home internet has an IP Ban and I can't access the forum so CJ if you're seeing this sort it out yo!
    Someday - and that day my never come, I'll call upon you to do a favour for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift.

    I hope that doesn't mean that the IP ban was temporary until they can sort out a permanent account ban for us miscreants and trouble makers.

    I hope you realise I had cold sweats and the shakes from not being able to find out exactly how the CK thread worked out.
