First Butcher, depending on the lease your broadband provider gives you. You can not release your IP that easily. And even if you do. The logs will show your many different names with the same subnet. This would tell me that your trying to release your IP and pull a fast one.

Players with a cable connection can't release there IPs that easily. People with DSL can. But are easily tracked and banned.

Like BB said. It's easier for me to click on your name and ban you (via autokick ) then for you to pull up a dos prompt and release renew.

It's much easier for me to ban a person using DSL then for them to reset there DSL modem.

Now we can all admit this plan is not fool proof on both sides, but guess what. It's a start and if we can cut 50% of the childish behavior from this game. Then I'm in.

I have already posted my support for Ballbuster and the AA. I bet Punkbuster started out the same. very small , only making baby steps in the right direction. But now look at that program and what it has done for the games it supports.

There will be plenty of servers out there ( at first ) who do not wish to participate. but the people that I want playing on my server will have a very good time playing this great game called MOH.
