how can you know if someone was lurking before
don't tell me that you actually try to compare IP's
certain characteristics maybe
If a new member joins, I write his/her IP down in my little notebook. I've been doing this since the very beginning, so I have a lot of little notebooks. 27 times a day, I write down all the IP's of all the members online at that moment, and compare them to the IP's in my little notebook.
and if he finds two the same he traces you comes round your house and eats your soul
[insert evil laugh here]

BWAAH!! BWAAH!! BWAHH!! <--- That's the bullshit alarm going off.
Dang Neg. you know that someone is going to believe you when you say stuff like that.
Hell I think that is why he does it, I think it is pretty funny actually.
:)
you mean it aint true???
but how else shall we ever safe gaurd ourselves against an influx of past......perhaps even banned members [pause for theatrical gasp]
ohhh yeah we have aps/mods etc to dal with people who get out of hand - huh silly me for forgetting

negative ... give me some of my previous nicks ... and you'll get a cookie
i asume that AO doesent really care, people can come back if their banned.... this is my third time back........ at least i hope they don't care
dont think many people do - only person i can think of that would be an exception is NFG
but wouldn't need ips to spot her - she gives her self away with the tortue she bestows upon the english language

it also depends on why they were banned -- look at Nemory's old name -- Memory (i know b/c the profile is the same and he told me)
yet sometimes trolls just keep coming back and it lets ppl keep their balance ;) -- personally i don't care, but i know of some who really kind of get pissy ;)
MemorY - NemorY ..if somebody doesnt figure that out by themselves they should be shot :)
Cant u also click on an IP and see who all posted from that IP, but since some change that isn't the best way either....
I think its mostly multiple accounts at the same time that is frowned on - not people who have been banned coming back under a new account

hmmmm....this is my second time back...im doing alot better this time.
Hey all,
Even though Negative probably has many notebooks and Excel spreadsheets to do the parsing, IP addresses don't always make sense when you try to track someone.
For example, if you are on DHCP with your service provider, you may have a different address every time you log on (ok, it's probably going to be in the same block, but still).
And then, there's the users who connect from work, from home, from the road, from Internet cafe's ... they have a whole list of IPs against their name.
BTW, Negative, I just blew up my laptop, so you can scrap that IP address from your list :D
Cheers,

Hi rabit...............this is how it works.............
First the polygraph test......
Then sodium pentathol...........
Then scopalamine.............
Then ennis will resolve the discrepancies with electricity
:shocked:
Then...........have you ever wondered why "the specialist" is called "the specialist"........or "Gore" is called "Gore" :eek:
Actually, some persons sort of start off on the "wrong foot", get negged, and so on, then come back.....................I suspect that is true of many forums?..............As far as I can see, there do not seem to be any grudge holders here...........sometimes a "clean slate" is the best way............on the other hand, there are those who "come back" from a couple of red dots.
Now I know that I am already going to be accused of being drunk etc...........well working on it :D anyways, but I shall continue:
Unfortunately, there might be those who see your red dot(s) as an opportunity to "balance" their antipoints..............hence the "new sheet"/"clean slate" advice.
This is not a perfect site...........hey they let me become a member huh?
We use biometrics, its that big a problem.
Oh but she is back ;)Quote:

Me wanders back to admire the bright colours on the wall........
