Long-range ban?

QQ
edited April 2007 in News & Announcements
Fish and I have been discussing semiseriously banning the 38.*.*.* range from the board for hosting our banned user, being evidently riddled with proxies and generally having a poor reputation.

Before we do so, though I want to make sure that none of our regulars regularly fall into that net. Hence, I request you all check your IPs and see if they're registered to the same ISP, or ARE 38.x.x.x.

Even if none are, I'm not entirely sure that were going to block all that. This is preliminary.

  • I'm fine. Anybody who doesn't know:
    Check Here

    Thump
  • Right now I'm fine.
  • Nope. No numbers like that here.
  • Yikes. I'm safe, but thats class A network O_o
  • *Changes proxies*

    I'm having doubts about it, but this was more of a negative determination (I hope that's the right phrase): If noone was on that network, we MIGHT proceed, but if a major contributor was, that would completely sink the idea.

    In other words, we are NOT going to ban this range just because noone's on it.

  • I used to be on the 38's till i upgraded my internet connection and got a 12x.x.x.x dynamic line.
  • We could make it a bit smaller than 38.*, like 38.xx.*
  • I'm 192, so I'm safe.
  • Um, are you sure thats not just your local ip?
  • I'm in the 71.* range, so I'm safe. smile.gif

  • hey alex is your ip 192.168.1.x ?
  • Not all IPs starting with 192. are private.

    No. 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.3.
  • ...you fail.

    192.168.*.* is private, that's not your 'real' IP.

  • It claims 172.189.0.17, I constantly see different results on the web, 192.168.0.1 is the most frequent. I'll leave it at 172.189.0.17.

    AOL = dynamic IP.
  • Okay... mabey I'll leave it as 172.*.*.*
  • 192.168.*.* is NEVER internet
  • The point is, it's not 38.*.*.*, which is what's in discussion here.

    -Q
  • Yeah, 192.168.0.1 is most likely your router

    For those that don't know, typing ipconfig in the command prompt isn't going to give you your public IP address... I have a feeling thats what some people did.

    ipconfig would only give your public address if you were directly connected to the modem.
  • Yep thats your LAN IP, 192.168.x.x is reserved for lan ip use.
  • 10.0.* (Could be 10.0.0.*) is also LAN usage. There is one other range as well for LAN.
