Banned Users.

[joshuar]

@Alex, im not saying that users should be allowed, I personally think they should be banned again, however it's not my decision to let them back.

But then again, I am a firm believer in second chances, so maybe let them back once and see how they go, if you blow a second chance then keep banning.

The point in banning = Loosing your account not that your removed from the whole habboxforum. And I haven't exactly come onto the forum breaking every rule I have, I've actully come back and tryed to get my reputation back, but seems I cant due to alot of people holding onto the past, Come on, we only live once.

no your making the past again.

no your making the past again.

No no, your bringing the past back again + When your banned on habbo, do you or do you not come back?

@ Ross, clear your cookies
And a year ago, it wasnt allowed to create a new account, but Seacat changed that rule.

yeah. because i think they were losing alot of members? in december 05, there was like a bit of a "revolt" in spam and that, and loads of us got banned. and then when we went on another account that got banned & so on, so forth.
in the end none of us could be bothered to keep registering so we all left, but then we came back about 5 months later.

Well my friend the forum can IP ban the user that means their internet will not be able to acess HabboxForum or they can ban the e-mail adress so that e-mail can not be used to sign up again or they can just ban the username like Moderators usually do

Really? Well arent you clever!!?!?!?!?!? Idiot.

The problem with IP addresses is that they do switch between computers. I remember when someone got an IP ban it banned most of the city (who shared his IP address).

A machine ban would be better if we were banning computers from accessing the forum, but no such feature exists for vbulletin.

Yep, Josh is right about the IP problem, but only if we could ban a machine!
Also, some people have dynamic IPs which changes everytime their internet connection is reset.

Becuase, when they return. They usually behave on another account as they know they will just constantly be banned. So alot of the time they come back on another account and don't cause major trouble.

Thats not the point of a ban though.
That's a fresh start, if you've been banned, why should you have a
fresh start with no marks against your name?

No, the point in banning = GONE, KABOOM, BYE!
What you are talking about, is what i said above , giving someone a fresh start.
And if you've done something to be banned, why do you deserve a fresh start?

[Dentafrice,]

But sometimes when banned you don't deserve it
