So the way IPs work is you either have a fixed one (most users do not have this) or a dynamic one which can change frequently or when triggered by certain events (OS restart, manually refresh, etc.).

You friend needs to find out how his device gets its IP and either change it or change their ISP. FANDOM isn't going to remove an IP block that they probably put in place to prevent an even worse bad actor from abusing their service. Most likely your friend uses an IP in a range that a bad ISP also uses or maybe your friend happens to use that ISP. Otherwise, FANDOM would probably have just removed the IP block right away.

Complaining about it here for your friend is just wasting time. Tell him that.
