Hi,

Basically, South Africa has one main ISP that owns literally every other one. They own the lines and stuff.

They are called Telkom, telkom uses an invisible proxy (or something) which means that majority of SA shares an IP... Which sucks.

It depresses me everytime i try to get on 4chan (not sure why i would want to go there), and other forum places, the dreaded "IP BANNED" Message... Knowing that some (one) idiot in SA has done it.

Does this mean that, If one idiot in SA decides to get himself IP Banned from Disco, will the whole of SA have to go down with him?:(

No, there are ways for the admins to let individuals through.

I thought they could only allow specific IPs in a range ban... But meh, you know best.

Well, see it like the mercs in Liberty

We could ban them all, but only let a few trusted ones in.

People would like to say the same about Phantoms, Wild... heck even CR.


What they do is perfectly legal within the laws of Bounties, the Server rules, roleplay and human rights.

That'd suck, I'd lose one of mah arpee buddies if everyone got hit with an IP ban just because of one person.
