All users are recorded as the same ip address which makes banning them impossible,
and this plugin rather useless. There is no support for this plugin, even for paid
users. I’ve had an unanswered question collecting dust for months. The plugin is
rather broken in the admin panel, but still usable.

Quick updates and quick developer feedback This is the biggest advantage. The developer
also responds with a quick and friendly answer.

UPDATE Rated 5 stars as the plugin proves to be reliable and functional. My personal
favorite feature of this plugin is the possibility of sending/displaying the notification
to the user who was warned or banned. ____________________ Tho I don’t want to diminish
the efforts of the developer in coding and developing this plugin by rating 1 star
I will rate 3 stars. Because, the plugin doesn’t seam to work properly as the provided
shortcodes are not functional. The idea and the concept of the plugin are awesome
as far as functionality (in theory) but in “practice” they don’t work. Maybe next
time, when the developer will make a plugin which actually works I will rate 5 stars.
Thank you. Great functionality, to bad it doesn’t work for me

I’ve just updated to the latest version of this plugin, and after that it has become
unsuable. The dasboard doesn’t react anymore and statistcal graphics are messed 
up. Bring back the old version that worked.
