Sure thing Easy Dog!

But perhaps Belva's latest antics done under a number of aliases ...is it just one or could it more than that ...  may drive home the point I was trying to make ...

but then again I don't fully understand the whole revolving IP number thing (let's be honest I don't understand a thing about IP numbers)

I'd just like some system in place to ensure that the valuable members of this forum (of which there are many) are not driven away by the few troublemakers ... some of whom are downright despicable ... and right now I think multiple identities is one of their weapons ... anyway I'm sure our beleaguered admin team is looking into it

I can't get too excited about multiple personalities. As long as they're all civil and respect the site rules, who cares?

Sorry but I don't want to do this



Sorry Max to get you riled up last thing I wanted to do

It's still a point of frustration with me (yes I gave up trying to cross reference those numbers pretty quickly) although I'm sure it will sort itself out ...

Errr, I know that you as an administrator and sure Maani as a moderator can see the IPs of the posts but who else can? Can collaborators do that?

Maani,

I know this is pushing it ... but I for one, am really quite cheesed off at Forum users employing multiple identities to make fools of the rest of us. I swear I recently caught myself wondering if DB, wallace and K9 were the same person ... I don't mean to disrespect anyone, it's just that this habit has got me a little paranoid ... and I'm sick of it.

Also is it ethical for you to publish the identities of the various offenders? That will expose these frauds for who they are (or have been?) ... I admit I'm also curious and it would clear up some mysteries for me ...

Again sorry for the inconvenience and extra work my post is implying.

Cheers!

Trotsky
