## Author Notes:
##
##    This MOD is based heavily (almost entirely) on the 
##    DNSBL Blacklisted Registrants MOD by TerraFrost
##    TerraFrost < N/A > (Jim Wigginton) http://www.frostjedi.com/phpbb
##
##    The author found that although DNSBL and Open Proxy registrations
##    were successfully being blocked by using TerraFrost's MODs, SPAM
##    posts were still being made by "members" that had registered using
##    "good" IP addresses.
##
##    ***** This version of the Block DNSBL Blacklisted Posting MOD
##    is indentical to the original version - EXCEPT
##    it inflicts a time cost. Like all things with evil intentions
##    it does not come at a cost to only the inflicted.
##    It is a "2 edged sword" in that not only the offending IP must
##    suffer, but the forum server must also "drink from the same cup".
##    Keep this in mind if you choose to use higher "nap" values. *****
