I'd like to know how livejournal even knows who users are in order to ban all accounts they have.

Email is out because you can easily set up a free email account anywhere and register with that.

IPs are out because they can change, be spoofed, etc.

O.o are you freaking serious?

Way to use an atomic bomb to kill a fly LJ abuse team.

how does choosing an icon equal "causing trouble?"

Re: Wasn't There an Easier Way? anonymous July 27 2005, 23:12:51 UTC

It the USING of the icon that is/was the issue.

Re: Wasn't There an Easier Way? killhamster July 27 2005, 23:14:27 UTC

i'm not offended by the icon.
