Ok, here's the problem with "bad reviews" from disgruntled players...
You have players who do something, and get denied, banned, or whatnot. Usually you can set your watch to the timing of the post on here, or TMC, or Kyndig, or a review, or a combination of all of them, berating the staff, berating the mud, slinging as much mud as they can in a petty attempt to get back at the person(s) who had the audacity to halt their behavior.
Honestly, after dealing with this for years, there's not much you can do about it other than weather the ****storm that flows from it and just go along with your business as normal.
People can see through the bad reviews and idiot posts, and as long as your remaining players are still happily playing, to #### with the moron that caused the problem in the first place.
As for dealing with dynamic IP addresses, my only advice is to just keep denying the characters as they reveal themselves, either the person will stop being an idiot, or they will move along to harass someone else.
You can contact AOL with a socket, login time, and if you can get it through some means, a user name, and they will take action. What's an even more fun step is to get the contact information and talk to a parent, I've done that on more than one occasion, and even sent logs to the parent of some of the lovely things that their minor has said, and of course they think their child is a perfect little angle until you send them server logs with datestamps with them telling the entire world things that just would make most people blush...
