OK.... who thinks Caps Lock is a pre-pubecent troll who just wants to start trouble on the forum?

 

 

I actually think he is 85, his grandsons and family got sick of him and dumped him on a nursing home, he feels lonely and is very angry at anyone... if you are that much anoyed by him (I have just ignored the old fart) then you might just wanna check for nursing homes near his location and send a letter asking them to stop allowing those guys internet use (and abuse).

Its not just your name that will get banned here its your IP address!

 

That's right... remember Cuda? and Neo? and Ian? There is a reason they didnt come back: they couldnt.

 

 

 

 

 

Don't feed.

 

Ignore.

 

 

+1 :P

 

 

 

Congratulations boys on sinking to his level.

 

Do not feed the troll! You want him to go away? Ignore him completely and he'll get bored with this place and move on to bother someone else.

 

 

 

+1

Or you can report him to mike, he is prety active and will take care of him in a matter of minutes.

You can do more than that. I once banned an entire country just because I got sick of the porn spam that kept originating from there. That's overkill in the case of one troll, but you can definitely take out more than just an IP. :P

I don't know; I think he might have said UK. It doesn't matter though; while you can't realistically ban the whole of the UK or US because you'd ban a LOT of other people who post here, you can still take some pretty broad measures.

I don't want to get into details about it as that gives ban dodgers more info on how to get around bans, but that's not an entirely true statement, flight959, or at least doesn't mean that everyone has a static IP. Just trust me on this one, I've spent quite a bit of time as a moderator on some very heavily trafficked message boards as well as a few others and I'm pretty handy with a ban stick.

If you're talking about banning IP Range, that's actually useless. Most people no longer use the static IP address method of proxies any more, but web proxies and programs like Tor. Which if I remember correctly, can be used to have an IP address WITHIN the US, and yes I am from the UK, No, I do not have a guitar, I did, a long time ago at least consider taking lessons (Actually took one, but I didn't take any more...).

 

The only good anyone has been with dealing with the situation is the people who haven't even replied, like the moderator you've been asking for in question has already stated too you. Anyway, be back in 5, I got a load of new clothes to put away...

Oh if they want to you can be banned' date=' or any person can be banned. Proxy's are easy to get, I prevent proxy access all the time; its really easy. I have many networks that I am responsible for and the younger kids try to get away with everything while at work. As long as I watch them for a few days I see what they are doing and then; wham no access. Its oh so easy; but there are those who might try to slide by; I admit it might get through for a few hours since I am not on site. But I can and do view the logs and thats how I will get ya. So as many ways you can figure how to get through there is that many plus one more ways to block. But rather than go through all this BS; why not just be nice. With all things considered by your own admittance do not own any guitars so why here? Oh you can be banned, then re-join then admin looks at the log and wham your gone again; you might post once or twice but you will be banned. There is also a way to prevent total access with a little file; virus writers have been doing this for years. The technology is already on the server and with your agreeing to join you had to agree to giving Gibson full rights to access your computer when you joined. [/quote']

 

So you're going to use trace route on my IP and see whether or not I'm connected to a proxy, and have Gibson threaten people with viruses.

 

No, sure. Go ahead, put a virus on my PC.

I think the best thing for caps lock is that he needs to hold off on the jokes and smartness for awhile and just ask questions about guitars and such. I pray that you are here for guitar related things, not just roiting around this place, stiring up the water.

If you insist.

At this time I was giddy, I just wanted to know how easy it was, interesting, so....

Kids these days...

As long as I watch them for a few days I see what they are doing and then; wham no access. Its oh so easy; but there are those who might try to slide by; I admit it might get through for a few hours since I am not on site. But I can and do view the logs and thats how I will get ya.

Oh no! My logs are getting me! How does that work? Oh I know' date=' logs must see your original IP which is different to the one shown in the logs previously, genius! Oh, wait what?

So as many ways you can figure how to get through there is that many plus one more ways to block.

Well normally I just use one really, really GOOD way... So all the other multiple ways to stop me, are small and mostly fail...

But rather than go through all this BS; why not just be nice.

 

Holy ****' date=' good idea!

With all things considered by your own admittance do not own any guitars so why here?

Because I'm Tuesday...

Oh you can be banned' date='[/quote']

Haven't you just explained that?

then re-join then admin looks at the log and wham your gone again; you might post once or twice but you will be banned. There is also a way to prevent total access with a little file;

No ****' date=' I know one too.

ipconfig /release

virus writers have been doing this for years.

Again, no ****.

The technology is already on the server and with your agreeing to join you had to agree to giving Gibson full rights to access your computer when you joined.

So you host more than the Forum database on this server? Sweet...

Yeah great idea if you know what your talking about. Sounds like a closet dumbazz. Read a book about dos commands. ipconfig /release works great but if you understood the actual technology then you would know its a 99.9% chance you will get the exact same ip address back because of the way a dhcp works. You can do release / renew all you want but then you will get the same ip address back. But being a smart person like yourself you already knew that. So I bet your doing this behind you little cable modem with your router' date=' just burning up those 192.168.... addresses. [/quote']

 

You obviously didn't get it, if you don't renew it, you wont be online. I know that sarcasm can be subtle sometimes...

 

Just to clarify it a bit more, I was refering to this:

There is also a way to prevent total access with a little file;
prevent total access

 

With no Internet Protocol, you're preventing access...

Now I know you haven't read 70-216 or 70-218 yet' date=' now go back to your room and read. Take your little hands off your thingy your mom told you to stay off those doggy porn sites without daddy around...[/quote']

 

You're - You are; ex. You are pissed.

 

Your - Possession, belonging. ; I banged your Mom.

 

You - Are a ******.

I like him. I've always been a sucker for the underdog.

Kid's god spunk.

 

I like him too. I have always been a sucker for the lonely and downtrodden. This kid has serious mental and social issues. We need to embrace him and make him feel wanted and needed.

I bring out the real you.

 

But your still a dumbazz because you learned two dos commands. I shall bow at your greatness all 2 command dos guy................... NOT

 

You're excellent at making fun of peoples examples, and since when does learning anything make you even more ignorant?

 

- Edit, bah. Mistake...
