That's a good idea, but someone could just write a
trusted user cookie to get on the site if they tried
hard enough. Probably no one would get around it. I
still think a blocking cookie would work for the 75%
of internet users that don't know how to delete their
cookies.

work the other way too?
I'm not technical so I don't know if this is
feasable or not, but could we
have a "trusted user" cookie. One that allowed
trusted users to skip any
block on the IP they are using? It woldn't be
needed for most users, but
would overrule an IP block in cases like Danny's.
Anyway, as I say, I have no idea if this is possible
or desirable
