I think that Kingston had said you can do either - ban a username or ban an IP address, and I think he has said he has done both depending on the severity. But even banning an IP isn't foolproof. Your IP address can change, especially if you're connecting from a phone. You can always access the site from somewhere else.
Aha, yeah, that was one of the reasons I was asking because I know that IP's can change. Is it possible to ban a MAC addresses? I know that someone could just use a different device but it seems a little more concrete than an email banning or an IP banning.
