Hello,
I post this suggestion which could be interesting for the site.
I noticed that when I report a lot of backdoored addon from the same guy it gets banned (that is cool) but sadly they just keep recreating new accounts to repost them  Sweat

My point is:
When someone gets banned, you could prevent it to recreate a new account (maybe a ban by IP Address just like some addons from gmod does, I don't know if it can be applied to a website though but it would be great  Smile)

IP Banning is already a thing that's built into MyBB. The issue is that they can get around it pretty easily, especially if they have a dynamic IP Address.
Nah

I didn't know that. Ty
Then maybe a system that prevent using VPN? I know some site block access when someone uses a VPN (I think they detect it because the IP from datacenter is known to being a VPN IP)

I'm sure there's a way to make some kind of extension in order to block the IP address; but there are many ways around something like that. At this day and age, it's pretty much enviable unless you want 2 way auths on everything.
