IP ban. But then he'll buy a new computer. Perhaps we make him go broke? That's not quite how IP addresses work.

I also have a dynamic IP which is really annoying because it makes port forwarding damn near impossible.

Basically you use a program that masks any IP address you're assigned by your ISP -it kind of acts as a proxy of sorts- and you use that IP for port forwarding.

Throw a few packets into the data stream labeled as "border patrol" watch the speeds jump.

I agree with Kevin... why do we keep turning on each other?
Yes, the fact that SPOTM has very few active members can be upsetting, but maybe that's just because there is very little content in these forums that appeals to anyone who wants to join/stay?
I know that a good amount of us wants to do something really cool as a community, which is what has been said from the beginning, but nothing is really happening... Maybe we lack good ideas/leadership? But then why does it seem to be so difficult to start any projects that decrease worldsuck? It's not that difficult!
I don't really know what I'm trying to say... I guess I just don't want this group to disband due to minor differences...

Well what comes across is that in the year and a half this tribes been around it hasn't been able to hold it together, come to conseses and make big decisions. It lacks that leader role, and purpose. And i think we're all wasting our time here trying to get it running. We should be doing things in our communities if we want to do anything meaningful. SPOTM is just for chatting with online friends.

You can do a lot if your friends are in it with you. Its one of these reasons i dont understand why this isnt working. I mean we've all made some friends here right?

If you want to quit, quit. Don't bring everyone else down with you.
