Default Re: IP bans?

to be honest Tor is only really good for if you want to keep yourself private from the website administration/moderation/owners, as well as casual individuals that can be interacted with. If someone truly wanted to track you down, they would be able to find the Tor exit node that you're connecting to for your session, and back trace you to find your original IP, or open up a fake exit node, put your IP into queue with it, and have a backdoor to your IP.

And of course, it's easier for governments to do these kinds of things because they have the resources to do so, and there are quite a couple of Tor exit nodes that are ran by the government. If you're checking deep web websites, it's even worse because multiple governments have their hands in pockets for popular websites over there.

So on this website Tor doesn't even really block you from much because administration doesn't care unless you plan on cheating, and people don't care period. And even then, I haven't really seen administration hand out an IP ban for cheating.
