If you were on a fixed IP address (such as Rogers) you'd be screwed.

Actually it's not just AOL. Sympatico, TekSavvy, OntarioDSL. They all use dynamic IPs, unless you request otherwise. No sure about Rogers. I've never used cable.

As per dropping the service of someone harassing on a board, it would take a lot of harrassing. Most ISPs have an e-mail for abuse and such though, and the matter would probably be investigated, and the user may be warned.

The most common warning I send out are copyright infringment notices from movie studios, record labels, and video game companies. 3 times and your gone. Stop using bit-torrent for crying out loud! LOL!

after reading all that, i have to say, jeff, that was a great post to end with.

Stop harassing the mods people. Sheesh. Read the bloody rules it will take 5 minutes. If we paid for memebership, yeah we'd have a right to have a big cow. But since the bulk of us dont, then we should try to be mindful of the rules that are in place.

Well...let me just say that I don't think that warning and strikes should be handed out just because someone makes a few mistakes. If the mod's feel that someone is blatantly showing no regards for the rules and maliciously posting objectionable content, then yeah, so be it.....ban away.

However, is the person directly aware that they have a strike against them? I think that if there are going to be warnings and strikes given out, we as memebers should be able to see that in our profile....ya know just as a reminder. If the mods are keeping track of the offenses, the member in question has the right to know where they stand (weather this is a free site or not)...just my opinion.
