I’ll ask my pet geek to try. Upon success, you send the $ to artsy.
Long as you show me how (see above post).
Anyway, the danger isn’t just what’s directly evident via ip, it’s how an ip can be used to track a user from post to post.
So, if you give your age (anon) in one post, your program in another, your years in lock-up in another…this info can be united to i.d. you, if someone’s psycho enough to work that hard.
Presumably, that’s how Zen located ccm’s i.d.--that is, by pooling exploitable info and doing various searches until he got a name. If he,in fact, didn’t abuse powers, as some assumed..
Zen never had access to Ip address info. Want to know how i'm so sure? I'm sure because phpbb2 (what we had before SMF and before ppbb3) doesn't allow subforums (the PV forum is a subforum). This means that the PV subforum (only thing Zen is or ever was a moderator of) could not have existed until we switched to SMF. Another thing about SMF, and the way phpbb3 is set up now: moderators don't have access to IP address information. (Read the manual if you want). Zen never had access to IP address information. Also, CCM never claims to have posted as guest. Look. Take this crap somewhere else. I've addressed this issue many times before:
viewtopic.php?p=312826#p312826
Do you any of the above quotes have been altered?
1. Yes. The highlighted line in red (above post) was never in the original here (febuary post), which, as you can also see, has not been modified as there is no modificiation tag*.
2. Even if such a line was there (which it wasn't, since the post I linked to above wasn't modified), all it would show is that Zen posted CCM's first name, Miranda, which was public knowledge (something that she published on antiWWASP and on her myspace page, available by googling her username). If the line you inserted (forged) is accurate (which it's not since the post was not modified), all it would show is that zen threatened to out CCM, but did not actually do so (and none of that even shows he even had her info).
3. Even if Zen did out CCM by providing her full name, (which he did not do, and could not have done, as detailed above), there was no harm done, as not even CCM can provide evidence that she was harmed.
I am addressing this now as I did before the server crash and that post was lost (All posts between March 10th and about June 10th). I will not address this again. Rather I will quote this post.
*modifications made within 5 mins of posting are not recorded. However. See point 2.
If you want to continue this crap, do so in that thread. This is about imartsy, and you're hijacking it for your own selfish drama. Do it somewhere else.

Dick, I'm not anymore "selfish" than you.We're both posting here, off topic.
You're talking to 3 or 4 guests, I didn't say ccm was outed through powers being misused, or post your #.
If you had read MY post correctly, you'd see my point was that Zen could have outed CCM WITHOUT abusing his privileges--which is what people are assuming
My point was also, that when you can "track" posters you can pool more info(which is how you claim zen i.d'd ccm)--which is another danger from i.p.'s being available.
Hope I've cleared that up, for you.
