Agreed

I find myself on the m5board reading how the M5 stacks up against its competition a lot more now
How do you feel about having a 5-Series Performance thread as I described above?

Thanks Busta. Yes, there are similarities. Unfortunately, on the other thread, there never should have been a very serious disagreement. That discussion took place when the last virus hit. And, when I came back a day or so later, Lomag had resolved the issue, but I missed it. I kept asking for clarification, while he correctly knew that he already had clarified. So, my missing his post resulted in an argument that need not have been. My bad, but not an intentional one.

now that I got to see, cos itis not posable I know, I work in the IT and Design department.
I think you are talking about the IP address rught?
well IP can be change too, infact anything can be change in the computer world.
It is very easy just hair a hacker from collage or U.

I also have 5 fix ip accounts too and 4 no fix ip accounts.
Of course IP's can be changed.
But this will be a big hassle for the user, changing it over and over, and that is usually too much of a hassle, so it keeps people that got banned away permanently.
You simply make it uncomfortable for them.

It can be done in seconds, but as I said, it's a big hassle. Would you do it? I wouldn't.

I got many accounts with ip so no I would not.
But yes if I only had 1 account.
like I sayed just a phone call at work.
I do it for work all the time so no hassle for me.
But I know that itis alot of hassle for most people cos they don`t know what they are doing most of the time and 90% of people in the world don`t have a clue how a comput wroks they just use it for work.

This thread is not about banning people and how to stop them from coming back. No hijacking please. Please respect the poster and quit discussing such issues here. A moderator certainly ought to know when he or she is being disrespectful, etc., to a topic starter.
