Miserable Users

Tired of banning users only for them to make a new account? IP bans are also not keeping the trolls and undesirable users away? Miserable Users is a simple but lethal plugin that acts as an inhumane alternative to banning a user. This plugin gives an illusion of server difficulties (among other things) to specific usergroups or users. (Inspired by Paul M. from vB)

When classed as miserable user, a member suffers through the following each time they request a page on your forum:

1. Slow response (time delay) on every page (20 to 60 seconds default).
2. A chance they will get the "server busy" message (50% by default).
3. A chance that no search facilities will be available (75% by default).
4. A chance they will get redirected to another preset page (25% & homepage by default).
5. A chance they will simply get a blank page (25% by default).

If they luckily make it past all of this, then they will be served up their requested page.

All of these settings are customizable in the Admin CP.

Installation
To install this plugin, simply download the mod and upload the "miserable.php" file to your plugins folder, activate and configure, and you're set.
