■ 🕑 1. Giko Firewall blacklist discussion │ I use shared ipv4, assigned by ISP & have no control of it. It does being shared across many hundreds of other ISP customers. I don't know how this work, maybe even NAT. │ Since free ipv4 addresses ended many years ago, and ipv6 is not implemented/given here. │ I don't have money to buy clean private ip or vpn. │ │ Unban my ip *.*.*.50 I don't have other ip & can't cchange it, │ sadly I can't join your game server play.gokipoi.com │ │ あなたのIPは拒否されました。TorやVPNを使わないでください。 │ Your IP was rejected. Please do not use Tor or VPNs. │ https://www.abuseipdb.com/check/*.*.*.50 │ │ What's the logic of this? │ Whole world is on Tor, NordVPN, you freely discussed their usage inside gikopoi chat room. │ I'm not using them, but it should be legal to use them. Every 3rd youtuber is promoting VPN. │ In many countries (china, russia, venezuela, cuba, iran, syria, libiya, africa ... etc ) it is impossible to browse internet without vpn. Banning Tor in anonymous imageboard game? Astonishing non-sence level of hypocrisy. │ │ Those sort of ip bans, making the web worse & gatekept, same stuff CF, js hCaptcha, or Anubis does does but with exception without js. │ │ Are you afraid of bots? But you do have idle bots in giko. │ I neven used a bot, neither spam. │ │ Quickfix: whitelist subnets. But I don't know subnets ranges of my isp. │ │ fix: pohon nonjs captcha should work fine for gikopoi. │ or you could come up & invent another new type of nonjs captcha. │ some folks made anime or math captcha. │ optional simple account creation (without email) is fine too, since it is sort of variation of captcha. │ │ Never ban IPv4, today they are all shared (or will be eventially soon), and behind 1 ip there could be thousands of users. │ │ ├─■ 🕑 2. │ I can consider disabling the firewall again but will re-activate it the │ moment abuse is detected and becomes a frustration. │ │ Here's the thing -- I'm not a JS coder. The code, as I've received it, │ kind of takes an all or nothing approach to the firewall. I'm also │ incredibly lazy and don't want to manage my own firewall list of bans. │ │ If you know how to modify the code to whitelist subnets, feel free to │ shoot me a tip via https://4x13.net/me -- otherwise, I'm going for an │ all-or-nothing approach. There are inbuilt user-based moderation tools │ so that does reduce moderation effort on my end... │ │ > Banning Tor in anonymous imageboard game?
