Hello Doug,
you might be able to clarify this for us, you say a lot of time is invested in maintaining the IP blocks for the forum, okay I fully understand that, having run public facing systems myself over the years, which sucks a lot of time out of your life but I am guessing that effort is to stop unwanted registrations occurring, not to stop people viewing the forum content?
How does that fit into restricting public viewing of the forum content? surely the content can be open for VIEW but require a person to be logged in to post in a thread or start one or are we missing some key fact to understand the situation.
regards,
Peter Sumner, vk5pj
