| − | Hey, uh, your war on "sock rings" is actually a war on people using proxies. I recognize 75.126.138.74 is a proxy IP. People use proxies for a lot of reasons. Some corporate servers and especially things like AOL route things through proxies automatically. You're not banning socks. You're likely banning completely different people. I have software that automatically gives me an IP proxy because sites can take your IP and use it for unscrupulous purposes. Just to let you know before you ban half the internet.
