If you have a small amount of peers i suggest creating a new dyndns/hostname and passing all your peers the new details. This way you wont be getting anymore illegal connections.

Ummm yes i know what you mean but It'll end up the same in a couple of months.

If you are careful who you share with and keep good communication with the people you do, then theres no reason why you would be in this position again in a few months.

So is it possible to ban certain ip's? And is it worth it?
-
Yes it is possible, ban them in your routers config page so they dont get near your server. You may find some of the ips will change and you will need to update you settings accordingly. A better idea is to set your fline to 0 0 0 { 0:0:0 } so they get nothing from you and leave it that way until you are sure they have removed your line.
