My "donation" expired. But I thought you all might like to know that the security mod is banning some AOL users even though they are not doing any thing evil or abusive.

Evidently AOL switching of IPs in the middle of a session is detected as a DDoS attempt.

In my case the users are so unsophisticated they haven't a clue as to what an IP address is. That's why they're using AOL.

Yes, I did a search of the forum to see if this is reported some where. The only post that I could find with AOL mentioned is one of my previous posts.

Regards,
Stan D.

PS: I'm not requesting support; only trying to give you feedback.

Well, i have an intention to add a bypass to the next release to where admins can overwrite who is allowed, so if its trying to block someone it will then check the override list to see if it needs to be ignored.... That might help.
