Default IP Check

Hi,

There's a poster in Tournaments that started multiple accounts between July 1-12, all posting from the same IP address:

thepokerace1

twisterpoker

apokermaniac

I warned one of the accounts, twisterpoker on July 12 for spammy posts, (low content, one line posts with obvious answers, etc.)

In the one successful thread started by these accounts, they started it and answered themselves with multiple accounts.

The accounts haven't posted since July 11.

This was also around the time of the Brandi thread, so it's possible a regular got ticked for a warning in that thread and did this to retaliate.

So, if this isn't a regular 2p2 poster I would think an IP ban would be in order so we don't have to track them down next time they get a wild hair.

If it's a regular poster, deal with it depending on their track record on their main account.

Default Re: IP Check

I did a search of 66.116.112.6, its an invalid IP address according to http://www.ip-lookup.net. This is what i normally do to determine where the user is from, if its a static ip or an ip from a pool, and who his or her ISP is. Thats the first time I have ever seen that happen, any techy guys know why this might be?

Edit/MH: Should be http://www.ip-lookup.net/

Odd. Feel free to ban the accounts, and I'll block the IP if the person causes more problems.

The IP didn't match any other accounts in my search.

There is a request in that thread to run all the IP addresses for Ceopoker1. Ryan ran one address which came from Los Angeles, but there is an address 72.28.208.254 that came from Miami
