Kenny, there's a thread about it somewhere. I think it had a link to somewhere else on the web. I'll try to find it. I read thru what they thought happened..how they think it happened. The images that came up in my mind were pretty bad.

Well, I guess I'm just gettin old in the brain. It was Bigfoot that got killed on his tractor while mowing. I'm pretty sure Hoss just up and left.

Not really. Just forgetting to switch to the alternate username, which by my count is now 4 username and maybe 5.
The Mods can see the IP addresses. So, unless it is a rotating VPN, they can tell. I thought that CT cracked down on that a couple of years ago. But not my circus and not my monkeys.
 
VPN hides YOUR real IP address and replaces it with the generic IP address of a remote server -whoever your VPN is set up to use as the spoof. A good VPN won't even allow your actual ISP (internet service provider) from knowing what your geographical location is or the fact you are using a VPN. Optional end to end encryption masks you even more.

I have no need or desire to do so, but it's really relatively easy to set up multiple username and passwords nowadays.

That's funny. If I was an admin and saw some one doing all this stuff like multiple accounts and trying to use a VPN blocker it was be a dead giveaway.

It's like the modern day dumb criminal but then again if they lie, have multiple accounts it would be right up their alley because they are obviously not very bright and have some screws loose.

4 or 5 years ago it was rampant on here.

Can't they see that the IP doesn't have an associated location?

If I say I'm from STX but my IP doesn't ever show a place in TX, or a place at all in some cases just United States, wouldn't that be a dead give away?

When I was using Xplornet for internet it put my location as somewhere in eastern Canada.

That's why I say trust no one unless you meet them in person and talk on the phone and stuff like that.

When I was a mod on 2 other boards and admin on one I saw crazy stuff. People would get multiple accounts and mess with people. These poor people who didn't understand and assumed the other people, on the forum, were decent people, like them. These people would have one account starting fights with them, and another account being their buddy. When we would go through and ban the person playing the games, the good person would get all upset not knowing it was done to protect them. No matter what you told them, that person (their buddy) had them manipulated them so much that even facts like matching IP address wouldn't change their mind.

You can see why people get abused and things but don't leave.

One time they had a real bad apple and they banned him and took over his account. I have ethics issues with that one but it was out of my control. You can already read the PMs in the background to axe groups doing that stuff so I'm not sure what the benefit was.

This was 15 years years ago. With AI and the other technology now, I trust it even less.

Most of the time a VPN is completely invisible. That's the beauty of it. Even their IPS can't tell they are using one.
 
Gonna get worse...
They say there will be a backlash agaisnt social media other online avenues because of lack of trust. We are already seeing it with "the click" grading system. Clicks equals dollars. No matter if it's bad info or nudity or drama it draws clicks or views which generates money. A well ran ran, factual, enet operation will starve to death. They pay people to go in the comments on videos and start drama to get a bunch of views and comments.

I hope it comes soon.

I suspect the same holds true on some websites that involve comments or discussion. The potential is there, to make a LOT of money, especially if a known 'influencer' shows up...or is 'born' there.

If I am not mistaken. Bigfoot died while on the tractor. Heart attack I believe. I just wanted to point out that it wasn't a tractor accident. (If I am not the one gettin old in the brain)

Edit: Found it below.
 
"That's" what they all say. It's kinda like a fart.
He who 1st smelt it, dealt it.

Yall might (or might not) be surprised who thinks all this mischief is 'ok' and just good fun.... and who does not. a case of 'rules for thee but not for me' kind of things.
Look before ya leap, hypocrisy runs deep.
