I need to do something very simple.
1. User with name "John Doe" logs in. 2. Write cookie "bad user"
I'm unfamilar with snitz, but I already know the code to apply this once its done, (If client has cookie do blah blah), but I need to get the cookie to a specific user. "John Doe" will be replaced with forum abuser name. Also any other banning advice for snitz would be helpful, such as making their posts invisible to everyone but the poster. I think if someone can help me with this cookie idea, it should take care of the problem for now. |

I did lock the member. The idea is, I know his latest name, so this cookie will write when he logs on to it. This cookie will be permanent regardless of him registering new names. If the cookie is present on his computer it will direct him to an error page. Simple as that. |

The problem is the user can just clear the cookies and start again.
Logging their IP feild would be better and then using the IP banning mod to bloke their address.

OK J Man but if that is the case and your problem member is a bit slow about cookies, I suggest you use the double register mod then.
If you read the readme file in that mod, it says:
"This mod will prevent members from registering for different accounts once they have registered, please bear in mind as this uses cookies and it will only let one person per pc to register"
If he is using the same computer it really doesn't matter what IP he comes in on.
I think this is as close as your going to get.
Cheers

maybe I can modify it to give the cookie to anyone logging in with the name. The idea is if he logs in with another computer that computer will also be banned. |
