Thread: Forum Identity?

    Forum Identity?

    I’ll tell my story first then ask my question –
    I often post on sports forum that is of interest to me. I got a bit upset one day at something the forum admin had been posting. So, for some reason, I got this ****-brained idea that I would register under a different user name and make a statement about this person’s credibility on a subject. I created a new Yahoo email address and registered under a silly name. I didn’t give any information that give-away my true identity.

    My original use-name, the one I use everyday, does have my true identity listed in my profile.

    Anyway, after a few days the person (the administrator) whom I was making a well-deserved thrashing too, posted that after some investigation they now know the true identity of the “user-name.”

    My question is, is this possible? Can they some how match IP addresses up to see that the two user-names come from the same location?

    hehehe you did right on changing identity with your email address. however you did not change IP. they can see it's a different user but same IP so that leads only to one thing your guilty.
    anyway to learn how to change Ip and surf anonymously go to [url]www.proxynation.org[/url] and register. to access tutorials and elite proxy.

    Also the admin checked your variables that's how you got caught.
    IP spoofing or changing is NOT enough.
