This is getting pretty annoying, why do they ban based on IP and not username. As alot of people will have a rolling IP?
An IP address is unique to each computer and is assigned by the ISP (internet service provider). Your IP address can be on the banned list because someone else using that ISP registered and went to spamming. Banning a username will just cause the spammer to re register with another name.

I Think that's how it works

FWIW: using bugmans link my IP address shows Stockton, Ca. ( I don't live there)
