I just figured Rich and crew had enabled IP logging to try and ferret out the less than scrupulous posters.

Hemicuda · July 30, 2002, 08:32 PM

I was also just wondering what was up with it... curious...

Fred Hansen · July 30, 2002, 08:59 PM

Something has definately gone haywire.

What the hell is IP Logged? I hit it too and got the same response. Am I being watched? Is radiation involved? I feel violated and I'm not even sure why. Confused. Tense. Confirmed with self that I'm not the mole, but still not sure I can be trusted. Must... find... answers... Will begin hunt for truth in my fridge. (That thing is lurking to the right below me even now. I think it's asleep but I'm getting out of here.

It's probably just php leakage. Actually, what it really means is that the BATF knows where you live...

Quartus · July 30, 2002, 09:34 PM

If Gewehr98 is right, I don't mind as long as it is available only to mods & technical staff. I once saw a forum where your IP was not only logged, but displayed on each post!

Nope. Don't post there.

**tyme** · July 30, 2002, 09:38 PM

That's why you need a friend to set up an anonymizing proxy for you

C.R.Sam · July 30, 2002, 09:42 PM

Cool............
In the nick of Tyme

I'm not at home, and I'm at a HUGE major University on a multiple random server site.......It'll take em a while to find this computer....and then I'll be gone

It's a Bird; It's a Plane; No, It's Just Me Screwing Up!

Staff requested that we remove the "New Thread" Button from existing Threads...evidently some of you guys are screwing up repeatedly.

This resulted in my playing around in the back room to reset the hacks to the new version templates. While I was back there I repeatedly pulled some of the wrong switches. Should be good to go now.

Well, so much for the freshly cleaned keyboad.

Yeah, Rich, I admit we are retards, um, I mean computer challenged.

I have started a few new threads myself meaning to reply to one in progress.

In case the implication was missed, "some of you guys" most definitely includes staff.
