[Wikipedia-l] multi-headed VANDALS

[wojtek pobratyn]

correct me if I'm worng, but I seem to recall a feature
in the UseMod software where one could revert all changes
done by one user or IP. it would seem quite usefull in this
case.

regards, 
WojPob

| I just blocked 3 IPs of a vandal similar to if not the same as the previous 
| one. Both events involved more than one IP being used by a single individual.
| 
| Please see http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/Special:Ipblocklist
| 
| One of the messages this person left was: 
| 
| "ADMIN, you gunna block every IP im on? ROFL.. don't waste your time ;) <3 
| proxies ;)"
| 
| I know, we could whois the IPs and complain to the ISP but my partner is a 
| tech support supervisor for Earthlink and he says that Earthlink does not act 
| on these types of complaints. I don't know if this vandal's ISP will be so 
| ambivalent. Most ISPs seem to not care what their users do so long as EULAs 
| are not violated. 
| 
| I'm not sure what to do -- this person will almost certainly come back again. 
|  
| Any suggestions?
| 
| Jimbo you are an ISP owner, what do you think?
