From looking at this guy, he's had several accounts, several email addresses he set up, so I banned all the email realms he has, and the user id's. I'm going to go and search for all users set up using these email services in that time frame, and ban their accounts also. If they want accounts, they can use their REAL email addresses, like we requested. I may just back ban all eqemu users using any of these, or other free email services.

We REQUIRE you to use a REAL email address. If you do not have one, contact your ISP for one, they give everyone an email address when you set up service for them. The reason we try to enforce this is for just these type scenerios, users coming in from random emails, who can set up a free account, and just make a new one when they get banned.

If anyone knows any other free email services that should be banned, let us know...
Im starting to think we need to do an forum account wipe, with a precompiled list of all banned free email services. We have a ton of accounts set up, and I'm betting alot of them have never been used. Or do a delete on all user records where # of posts=0. (I'm thinking in terms of a sql delete statement.)
