How do you solve a problem like Mabus?
I was on the forums last night. As it turned out, a forumer named atheisttech had posted a new thread, and I discovered that it was, in fact, some joker named David Mabus, and looking at the hall of shame, I realized that he seems to have made several accounts on the forums. What I want to know is how does he manage to keep making accounts? Does he keep changing IP Addresses, making an IP Ban impossible?

RE: How do you solve a problem like Mabus?
If he has a wireless 802.11g router he might just have a generic IP, or his ISP might assign him a new IP every time he connects to the i-net. These disturbed people with nothing better to do with their apparently worthless time are quite amusing though, like giving a chinpanzee some kind of puzzle to solve.
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

RE: How do you solve a problem like Mabus?
I think he has about 30 banned accounts here. He's an infestation on every atheist website, whether it's a blog, forum, or just some general commenting area. He seems to have a dynamic IP, so banning him isn't easy. I'm against putting IP bans in place due to the dynamic nature of a lot of ISPs.
He used to attack these forums every couple of days, but since we installed the "Stop Forum Spam" plugin he's been stopped from registering on most occasions. The only thing we can realistically do with him is spot his post and then delete it and ban him. If people report the post for us, it will make the process easier. Don't reply to it, since your post will be deleted anyway once we ban him. "The argument was not bullshit, it was circular." - Edward, Christian Fundamentalist
