Thanks.
Honestly, if I had banned an IP address, it was for a good reason.

I would NEVER permit another user, regardless of the reason, to register under a banned IP address.

Permitting multiple user accounts under the same IP address is bad practice. Just don't do it.

your usage is not the same as mine. thanks but why are you posting?
Should be relatively easy to do. May look into it when I get home... What then happens if there’s bot registrations under x amount of IPs? You could potentially get hundreds of PMs.

I guess that's the risk I run. Only other thing I'm thinking is after 'x' registrations in 'x' period of time (1440 minutes/1day for example), the IP is banned permanently.

Did you code this or make a start? If not I'll make a start on this sometime this week.
Message me if you have a github (private) for this plugin.

I'll make a start for it, I'll throw up a private github and send you an invite. It's about time we actually got the collaboration done.

Yesss, hit me up on Discord when the repo is made.
I've created this plugin and delivered it to OP.
