There's been a ton of spam lately from africa, not to mention scams which is even worst, not much has made it here but I rather stop it before it happens. I don't think we have much, if any users from there so I'm just going to ban the whole thing.
If your IP starts with any of the bolded numbers let me know so I can set your IP to be allowed through in the firewall rules.
41.0.0.0/8
105.0.0.0/8
154.0.0.0/8
197.0.0.0/8
Those are the IP blocks assigned to
AfriNIC, which is in charge of distributing IPs to African ISPs and other organizations in africa needing large quantities of IPs.

Can see your IP here.
Chances are if you don't live in Africa you don't need to worry.

You must have different FOX. Our FOX news tries to make everyone look bad... EVERYTHING. They would even make God look bad if it was possible :P

Africa's a continent, not a country...

I don't think anyone said it was a country.
AfriNIC is in charge of the whole of Africa for distribution of IP addresses, and I'm banning every /8 block assigned to AfriNIC with the exception of individual users who contact me about it.

Actually, that kind of thing's more in line with something CNN or MSNBC would do, but that's not the point. Even if you did tell any news station, they probably won't care about a forum site for a MMO that isn't WoW, and a fan-made forum no less.
