find IP

**midjam** · 01-24-2007, 08:48 AM

Hi guys,

In need for some advice for the gurus.

I have a phpBB forum and a moron member who has included porn in a post.
Kids visit my forum so I am not impressed.

I have his username, email, website. But no IP to ban, is there some way I can find this information?

I mean whats to stop him just getting a new username and email and doing it again.

Thanks

EDIT:
Ok think i figured it out.

I just put his website in the ip ban and the ip came up in the ban list.

Ban them enough times and they'll stop. Or ban their IP with .htaccess if it's static.

Show them that you have no intentions of giving up.
