Just for everyone's information, IP addresses are too imprecise to track a physical address for a poster, though they can be used to determine if two posters using different nicknames are, in fact, the same person. Even then, IP addresses can vary if, for example, a user changes his or her service provider. So, no, the admins are not involved in an evil plot to track down the site's members. We're much too busy hatching other evil plots... [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]
