I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

The problem is that there is no way to stop someone permanently if he's dedicated enough. IPs can change, cookies can be erased, and he could even go on someone else's computer even if Bungie.Net could somehow ban an individual computer forever (and I don't see how it could). It's not perfect, but it's the only thing that we have, and it's stupid to say "Well, people can get around it so there's no point." It makes it more difficult, which is often enough, since everyone eventually gets bored.Actually on macs there is a computer id which the person who made it can ban forever even if you change ip. That would work perhaps?Problem is, a lot of Bungie users don't use Macs...really, there is no better way than the way it is now, even if the way it is now is hardly perfect.
