Ban reason for this one random server I joined: ponyfags got no brain This website's staff does not consist of children, so you would get a lot more constructive reasons if you got yourself banned here. And I did use the word 'likely' for a reason; a lot of authority on the internet isn't deserving of the title.

I'm not trying to cause a ruckus. Was just asking why couldn't someone do that. The answer to me is there is no reason you couldn't do that. The 'common sense' phrase came up a number of times which led me to conclude that someone was thinking i had none. But i'll drop it. This isn't a thread about how to get around certain security aspects. Sorry for the rant. Thanks Alyxx for the vote of confidence!

The only secure website is one that no one can access. Internet security is a difficult and complicated thing to tackle, you pointed out just one of many difficult-to-patch security holes. For what we know some regulars here could be formerly banned members. Let the conspiracy theories begin!

They'd have to either have a dynamic IP address or constantly use a proxy/VPN to access AF to avoid getting caught. I also look into new users who seem similar to other users every now and then, and it's not really hard to tell if someone is the same person. They'll do something to give it away eventually I assure you.

You just tipped your hand!! ...I didn't know Ross hired former FBI agents proficient in internet psychological profiling by stealthily tracking peoples forum habits on accursed farms in order to flush out formerly banned users! Sneaky bastards!! See, i'm not so hard to get along with!

Geezzz... I even forgot there was this nickname thing  Well.... I wouldn't even want to change mine, because I'm in some Ross' videos credits *showing off*  (unfortunately there are some other HLPrincess out there, but only one at this forum and it's the right forum )
