IP bans can be dodgy though, I'm banned form http://www.ffxivorigin.com via my IP, but I've no clue why as i can't recall even posting on it, not even sure i ever signed up lol.

There may be some cases why they may cause small problems, but that's why a way to contact the moderation team should be present in any forum.

But no forum can do without IP bans, otherwise there's simply no way to enforce moderation, and the heavy trolling going on here is quite the proof of that. Someone breaks the rules? He gets banned and the day after he's back again with a new account, trolling again, because he feels untouchable.

Hmm correct me if i'm wrong but your account here is tied to your Square Enix registration. Would that not be sufficient to ban users permanently?

That's be true is there weren't still tons of friend codes from the collector's editions around. It's very easy to get a new FFXIV account nowadays. In fact we have several banned trolls that are back with just slightly changed names and the same attitude.
