*[[Special:Contributions/69.50.184.220|69.50.184.220]]

:Will it work? [[User:Ducon|Ducon]] 07:58, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
::Dunno. I can't find documentation to suggest that you can do blocks, but wikipedia seems to do it. -- [[User:Jdowland|Jdowland]] 12:13, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::::I mean: blocking the IP 69.50.160.0/19 will block all the Atrivo IPs automatically or will it block only the 69.50.160.0/19 IP itself? [[User:Ducon|Ducon]] 15:36, 22 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:::::69.50.160.0/19 isn't an IP address; it specifies the entire range of IP addresses from 69.50.160.0 to 69.50.191.255, which is the entire Atrivo range. See [[Wikipedia:Classless inter-domain routing|this]].

===85.255.113.0/24 and 85.255.114.0/24===
85.255.113.190 spammed the front page. [[User:Fredrik|Fredrik]] 20:22, 9 Jan 2006 (UTC)
* Also spam from 85.255.114.133. [[User:Fredrik|Fredrik]] 16:17, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
* Also 85.255.113.154 and 85.255.114.132. I think a range block may be in order. [[User:TheDarkArchon|TheDarkArchon]] 16:37, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
* Now there's 85.255.113.156 spamming TNT Evilution. We need  a range block (I don't understand them) [[User:TheDarkArchon|TheDarkArchon]] 16:40, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
* ok, range-blocked 85.255.113.0/24 and 85.255.114.0/24 -- [[User:Jdowland|Jdowland]] 22:33, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
