If your IP starts with a 173...We had to ban the 173 IPs cause one person was spamming the site and after numerous warnings, she continued to do so.

So, for right now, we are manually allowing certain IP's...please email us at myaigoo@gmail.com so that we can look it over. Don't forgot to include your IP address. Thanks.


I understand that you tried to ban someone because they reside at a certain IP address.

But it is rather ignorant that you banned an entire subnet, outside of the list of IP's that this individual has access to.

Say you wanted to ban Google because they're spamming you. Their IP address @ Mountain View, CA is 72.14.213.104. Obviously if you ban this IP, they'll create another one, but it will be within a similar proximity. However, assume Google's ISP's subnet is from 72.14.0.0/16 to 72.14.255.255. <-- This means you should ban these IP's that Google has access to.

But what you're doing is, (for example) you're banning 72.x.x.x. 72.15.0.0/16 could be NYC for all we know. This could be the entire state of California, some parts of the U.S. and other parts in the world. 72.x.x.x could be anywhere!

I seriously believe you should reconsider your blanket ban, get this individual's actual IP address (173.x.x.x) and ban his ISP's range of IP's, instead of the entire world that shares 173.x.x.x. If you need help figuring out what IP's he has access to, send me a PM.

Why are you not treating your personal blog like a full-time job? You should have quit your full-time job and spent the time researching every technical concept involved in running a blog. Also, you should also have obtained the relevant tertiary qualifications. Only then can you be certain that the visitors to your blog will be satisfied. After all, the visitors to your blog will give you food and a roof over your head.

Ahh a critic - a person who knows the price of everything but the value of nothing.

Don't ASSUME (ass of u and me). No one is asking anyone to visit our blog. Don't visit. Don't stop by. Don't swing by. Roll Eyes

This is why access to the Internet should be a privilege and not a right. If this was the 1990s, I'd say he was an AOLer. As a matter of fact, drop your ISP account, sign up for a dial-up AOL account, and STAY THERE! Dumb *ss FOB.

groink, you appear to have not realised that my posts in this thread were all a mockery of your original post, where you suggested the people at aja-aja provided detailed information about their IP banning. By insulting my posts, you are insulting your own ridiculous post.

Do you still not get it? Rather than expecting the people at aja-aja to spend their time trying to make life easier for everyone, have you not thought that maybe the people who want to use the blog could make some sort of effort? All that is being asked for is for people to e-mail aja-aja with their IP address if they want to be unbanned. That is not difficult at all. Since it is their personal blog, there is no reason at all that they need to even cater for people who have been unintentionally banned.

knuckles - keep your day job, if you have one. Even annchong didn't get it. She knows far well what I meant, and it wasn't asking for the world.

I have a dynamic IP and they all start with 220.XXX.X.XXX.

The last time I was there, I even clicked on the ads to maintain your site.

There's been at least one topic similar to this, and I don't think this is correct place to ask Aja-Aja stuff. You should e-mail them: myaigoo @ gmail.com.
