Indeed. I'm thoroughly fed up with this childish behavior. Its been exhibited on PN and now here too. Can't a range of IP addresses be blocked, not just one IP address?

Complain all you want--this is one of the few worthwhile threads going right now.
Is there some virus going around which causes people to lose any sense of fun?
Oh, my answer--Zeiss. Always. It's an incontestable fact.

Let's have make some guesses...
What will FG's next username be?
What will FG's next interesting topic be?
How long before FG returns?
BONUS QUESTION: Is FG really harrassing, is he simply being annoying, or or is he being just "cute"?

Fred, I think you have an odd sense of what's worthwhile. Could you explain how you think this thread is one of the few worthwhile threads going right now?

fred,
i'm gonna guess that you & frank have an email thing going on.
all i will say is that i did too and when frank decided that i was one of the bad guys he turned on me very quickly and it it wasn't very pretty.
he still emails me, i assume trying to taunt me or in some way harass me.
it's not about a sense of fun as i once thought also.

There's a common re-interpretation of the definition of "assume" which I probably don't need to re-hash here. I don't have "things" with anyone via email. If there
are some problems to be worked through I'm on "Cymbalta" which seems to work
for me but my friend Nancy prefers "Zoloft". Of course, it could be that gloomy weather you guys get on the "left" coast. Sunshine is my drug, and I freely OD
every chance I get. Sunlamps can work too, but you have to be careful with new
ones because the UV is really hot. UV is very effective for Seasonal Affective Disorder.
One thing's for sure--if a bunch of guys had bought me a Zeiss Ikon I'd be a lot
happier than you seem to be.

I (nerd alert, nerd alert) was/am an admin on a forum running the same software is here. Yes, it is possible to ban a range of IPs - but anyone caught in that range would be SOL.
The usefulness of such a method depends entirely on the size of Frank's ISP and his connection method. If he's on cable or DSL that stays connected most/all of the time, chances are that his IP is fairly static and it would require some work for him to dodge the IP ban over and over. I know I don't relish starting and restarting my cable modem regularly. (But then, FG seems mentally unstable and such a hassle wouldn't bother him? Good thing I signed up here with my gmail address!)
If he's on dial-up, you'd have to start banning ranges (ie 192.168.100.*) which could catch other people,and if the ISP is large enough may be difficult to narrow down his IPs.
If he's using AOL, it's all but impossible to curtail his access. They use a series of proxy IPs that could be shared by multiple people at the same time and have no connection to the user or his whereabouts.

Fred, I'm the one on the 'left coast' while Backalley is a mountain range or two away from the coast. It was a great, sunny day today.
Hope your surf turns better soon, buddy.
