of course, and you should EXPECT IT.
but putting in so many walls, making it such a hassle to get people to logon...
going through the trouble of making people read rules...yadda yadda.
.....WILL STOP PEOPLE FROM CAUSING PROBLEMS.. but not the way you think:
your bbs will be such a pain in the ass that people will not CALL IT.
even the good users that dont cause problems.
and regarding fidonet: THAT IS THE WAY CRAPPY FIDONET IS!
you have to adhere to these VAGUE rules.
people have even been restricted from fidonet , just because they
repeditly request help with setting it up, and cannot benefit from
the snide comments of fidonet users.
so, if you want to put up road blocks, your bbs will be as busy
as a blocked road.
if people want to cause trouble they will. you just block their IP when it
happens, that's all you can really do.
