Yes,
We can go that far, but since it is not in the US and based in Saudi we have no options past that.
Also keep in mind that IP's are still not unique to individuals. One IP can be used by thousands of individuals especially if they are using dialup or dsl.
IP's are just one of the clues that convinced us to ban him under 5 or 6 user names he was using. There is usually a pattern(s) to follow up on besides an IP before we can get rid of them and even then you have to weigh the offense. This guy was not just a troll so it was easier to make the decision.
I am not going to give out any more info on this. (trolls and crooks can read it too.)
