• Welcome to the Off-Topic/Schweb's Lounge

    In addition to the Mac-Forums Community Guidelines, there are a few things you should pay attention to while in The Lounge.

    Lounge Rules
    • If your post belongs in a different forum, please post it there.
    • While this area is for off-topic conversations, that doesn't mean that every conversation will be permitted. The moderators will, at their sole discretion, close or delete any threads which do not serve a beneficial purpose to the community.

    Understand that while The Lounge is here as a place to relax and discuss random topics, that doesn't mean we will allow any topic. Topics which are inflammatory, hurtful, or otherwise clash with our Mac-Forums Community Guidelines will be removed.

Pulse-8, what the?

LOL... That guy later PM'ed me specificly to tell me why he was banned and why he apologized... The best part is that it had to do with one of the things I listed within that thread in post #19 on THIS page of the thread.

When someone is banned here on Mac-Forums, is it just their account, or does it include their IP address?

I expect it's just their account to start.

If they start registering other accounts and trying to get around their ban, it probably escalates from there.
