Need Help. Deranged Person!
-
Our game is being attacked by a deranged person.
Need help, asap, with someone who knows how to siteban or temporarily shut down Guests.
Thank you.

@enoch Would this person claim to call themselves 'Jill' by chance?
-
Easiest way is to change the Guest logins from 'guest' to something else that's hard to guess, which will cease those logins without messing with the Guest permissions.
Otherwise, good luck? There are a million ways around a siteban if they can just create characters (though then you'd disable character creation).

MUX:
@admin noguest_site=IP.HERE MASK.HERE
Example: @admin noguest_site=123.123.123.0 255.255.255.0 (for a /24 mask)Penn:
@sitelock <sitemask>=<options>
Example: @sitelock *=!guestRhost:
@admin noguest_host=SITEMASK
Example: @admin noguest_host=*Cheers.

Be aware that if this is a consistent butthead, they likely will have access to a ton of various proxy sites, like TOR, Ninja, HideMyAss, and so forth.
If you need to siteblock based on specific IP's, hit me up. I have a list of semi-current IP addresses for most known proxies, and while it won't be anywhere near the current full list (which amounts to the millions including all the private dark sites), it covers the majority of the public accessible ones.
Blocking people from proxies becomes a battle of attrition. The goal isn't to block every proxy in existence. The goal is to block enough of them so that it takes far more time for them to find new proxies than it does for you to block them. At that point it tends to no longer be 'fun' for the troll and they tend to move on to other activities.

@ashen-shugar I will pray that this is not our case.

Looks like it. A user named Telecornjc put up a redirect on their main page to a page called 'fuck you'.

Deranged people everywhere. But if they're screwing with your wiki you might want to block usernames as they come, or limit your registration to admin-level created only.

It's obviously not your common troll then. He could actually spell.
So he wins a small dipshit award, bravo claps for him

What did your game do to provoke this attack?
What was it wearing?
Was it drunk?
Does it get drunk a lot?
