Yeah Nearly. Theres lots of problems on banning with IP addresses since a lot of the PC's out there are on dial ups and older networks that have a dynamic pool of addresses - these are only unique for the session that the PC is connected for. Then you have the problem that you can easily change your IP address on most services. Its better to insist on a solid email address (service provider based) and ban that, the nickname, and the date of birth. Some folk try to do it with cookies but you can easily wipe your cookie cache.
