IP numbers are also a tool used for chasing DL's, but that's nothing new or special. It's used with all major BBS softwares out there.

the majority of people dont have static ip's. so lots of people tend to come to the site from similar ranges of ip's...

Furthermore, there are quite some people who frequently log onto Apolyton from different IPs: home, work, school, public PCs et cetera.

And then there are programmes to spoof your IP address or even sites to redirect you and therefore hide your real IP.

Yeah... but IP's are only "ONE" of the ways we catch DL's... there are MANY more

such as checking to see if the name starts with "charmon"

I was going to post a link to one of the more obvious DLs that have already been banned (like one of the ones with 'Ming' in their name), but unfortunately banned members no longer appear in the members list.

Hmmm... sounds like a restriction is called for then...

It's kind of like those cop shows... you know... the ones where the crooks are stupid, and always end up being fooled into confessing instead of keeping their mouth shut and asking for a lawyer.

Exactly. We've seen our share over at CFC.

And yes, there's more ways than just the ip...

But no one ever elaborates on those

Do you have text comparison software and stuff? Or is that too high tech? I guess posting times and frequency is a clue if it goes on for long enough.

Rimmer was banned on the basis of that stupid OT rumour he is my DL *shrug*

Bad luck eh Rimmer

	28-11-2002 09:04									#22
	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

No... he was banned because he shares muliptle IP's with you... hadn't posted in over a year... and only during your last restriction... and didn't post after a year until you got restricted this time...

Yeah... real "bad luck"....

Well of course he shares IP numbers with me Ming- I use a dial up sometimes

You think there's 200 million people down here? We all get the same numbers. It means NOTHING

If I used DL whilst banned do you really believe you would find them so easily? Can you say proxy server?

Good taste? Presumably he's Australian isn't he?

All I know is I got a cranky PM from someone called Rimmer saying he'd been banned because of me. I forwarded it to Ming.

Suit yourself - I don't really care about Rimmer

I did what I could for the sad git.

I certainly couldn't be arsed testifying for someone, whoever, whatever - maybe Rimmer is a DL, not mine though

Maybe I should start a rumour that you are my DL NYE

Maybe you are

Did it ever happen that someone signed a message sent by his DL with his own name by accident

like Rimmer posts a messagese like this:
