The MachineID isn't anything being read out of your hardware. It's a value stored on your hard drive. I reinstalled Windows and was able to join T3 The Gauntlet (where I am banned in till 2016 for ballkilling).

I find it really hard to believe that reinstalling windows would circumvent a SSC ban.

My guess is they just had him *kill'd, not ?ban'd

yeah... you can also read the file on mervbot.com on how to avoid banG bans.

or modify mervbot to use a random macID and permID (there's a function already made that adds 1 to your macID and permID allowing you to avoid a ban once, just change it to + random value < 5000 or so) and you can get around *kills.... although that usually upsets the higher ups and it won't change you're ip address (so BanG bans will still work).

I guess he doesn't know bypassing local bans gets him a netban (unless that was changed).

It was, much to my disapointment. The theory is that if they can bypass local bans, they can bypass netbans. And netbans have a greater chance of hurting an innocent.

Reformatting your PC does the same thing, and can sometimes be better if you have a ton of viruses

If you have a ton of viruses, you have already failed at the Internet. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.

All it takes avoiding a net ban really is changing your MacID, IP (or possibly ISP) and handle, it's not quite well economicly-wise though.

It takes more to make sure you don't get caught, but I won't post that secret info.

Still my fav method to ban people:
Add the persons name to obcene.txt

I remember some one banned TT from his zone that way... Can't remember who it was, though.

Back to the topic.
The secret is not to post in a forum and tell everyone what you just did. Well, unless your nick is PoliX.

Bob Dole.. Bob Dole... Bob Dole...... bob dole.... bob... dole....
