Okay, we have a list with IP's. And it's been there since 7,5 years, growing slow, I don't have a clue on what's what, it would be really nice if we could add a comment to the lines.

Have you tried:

123.4.56.789 # bad bot

This works in my .htaccess file but I haven't tried it in the ban list.

Code
order allow,deny
deny from 64.92.199	#thenewpush
allow from all

That would be nice to have. Another feature that I would like to see is the ability to add a subnet in CIDR notation, ie;

172.168.1/28 or whatever.

As I understand it now, you would have to list each IP in a subnet individually, with the exception of a class C address which you could then do the wildcard % bit.

You can use % with more than a class C:
xxx.xxx.xxx.%
xxx.xxx.%
xxx.%

Well yes, but I don't think many admins will be banning entire class B and A netblocks.

I guess my point was having a shorthand method to ban class-c subnets.

using underscore allows you to wildcard a single character place

I'm not following... do you mean "192.168.1.16_" and that would match .160 --> .169 ?

I guess that would cut down on some of the entries, but say you had a /28 subnet you wanted to block.

If you could just enter 64.119.5.176/28 instead of:

64.119.5.177
64.119.5.178
64.119.5.179
64.119.5.18_
64.119.5.190

That would, to me, make much more sense. Plus you know the IP's should be treated as a group, not single entries.

If CIDR notation is an issue, then maybe:

64.119.5.176 255.255.255.240
