 * When there will be “ip range ban” update so people will be able to ban whole 
   networks instead of one ip. Ip ban like: 251.121.121.* or 251.121.* or CIDR one
   will be a good idea i think.

 * If you check the faq there’s the details of how to do an ip range

 * Dont You think it will be better to add this note: “To specify a range you do
   something like: 192.168.1.10-192.168.1.20” to plugin ip ban section instead of
   putting it in the faq that no one reads ?
    Btw nice plugin using it for a long
   time now.

 * Glad you like the plugin!
 * I will add an outgoing link in the plugin regarding IPs and ranges, but I see
   no reason why folks wouldn’t check the FAQ. But I’ll add further docs.
 * Thanks

 * Because if someone have installed the plugin for long time he dont check all 
   the time the FAQ if something new is added there. The plugin updates are like
   10x for month or more if i would check everytime when the update is avalable 
   i will go crazy.

 * I don’t know if it’s 10x, probably 2-4 depending. Good job it has automatic updates
   or we’d all definitely go crazy 😉

 * Yea i have made them automatic. But i always try to read what is changed. I did
   not know there is range ip ban so if i did not know someone can dont know too.
