[QUOTE="Sledmore, post: 449372, member: 591"] [B]Brave or ballsy, no idea.[/B] Not the most luxurious update in the world, but we've recently began trials for attempting to block our VPNs/proxies - obviously this is something you can't do overnight, so the lists will be regularly updated. We ran a test last night, launched it at 3 PM (it had been pre-launched in stages prior to this), and we managed to hit 700 online (which is now becoming more and more rare for us), so blocking out the VPNs didn't really harm us that much. We've added a simple area for users to apply for an 'account whitelist' in which once they've applied for it, and we've added it to the account; they can use a VPN - it helps us filter the toxic users out, in some case we'll allow them due to school, uni etc. We have had some false positives so far, but we're working through it. [B]On a lighter note, our Birthday month starts on the 1st, and we've currently coded none of it - so that'll be fun.[/B] [IMG]https://i.sharefa.st/EkBVmBWaW6X3.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
