The IP and Username Challenge

Being I would not go away like I was so rudely demanded to do, and by someone that is 'supposed' to be a Christine advocate and happened to become jealous that I was finding more information than they could I give you this post.

What happened next was that I put-up a post here on TPPE in defense of our VFD men and women being accused of a cover-up or conspiracy and at that point I was accused of suddenly being against this investigation and Christines family.

This is when 'they' accused me of using multiple screen names and that I was actually arguing with myself.

This only has one purpose and that is to try to discredit me for whatever twisted reason, who knows?

Ok.. so lets get to this IP username challenge.

I'm posting my IP and info from the forum that I admin and I have almost 15,000 post.

I'm not posting this to prove my innocence, I know the truth! What I am doing is posting this so those other sites will have the chance to prove to you all that I am lying IF THEY CAN, which I already know they can't and wont because it was all lies concockted for whatever reason.

Now first I'll put-up my profile from the Motor-Mouths forum that I admin.

Next I took a screen shot of my username AND IP while no other users were online as not to capture their IP.

Now there it is for anyone to look-up with a number of free internet IP search tools.

Now below is a REAL explanation of how AOL IP's actually work.
In short, AOL transmits the IP of the closes server being used by however many users from that pool of IP's
----------------------------------------------------------------------

AOL users don't access your server directly, they have to go through proxies. An arbitrary number of users will be routed through the same proxy at any one time. What makes things even worse is that AOL tends to rotate their users through several proxies during the same session. It is not uncommon that successive page requests by the same user come from different IPs.

In other words: With users coming from AOL, there is no clear correlation between a person and an IP address. What you see in your logs is *not* the IP assigned to the users machine at that time. That doesn't mean that those "several" visitors can't be the same person, just that the IP isn't giving you any solid indication. All you know for sure that they're coming through AOL.

does that explain 4 people sharing 4 different IPs?

absolutly - any sort of connection sharing will allow more than one simultaneous user to appear to be from the same IP.

So if they're using a router set up to do NAT (Network Address Translation) or even a modem on a PC sharing its internet connection, they will all look as if they've all got the same IP.

Most dial-up and DSL connections will give you a different IP each time you conect.
I guess it would be a little odd if a DSL connection was being disconnected / reconnected very frequently. But it's still possible.

So yes, a group of several users all from the same simultaneous IP at the same time, then a little later from the same IP, but different from what is was before.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

So there it is, now I challenge any site or accusing user from those sites for that matter to match my IP to another user with the SAME info as mine. Remember AOL Ip's are routed to a local servers IP. NOT static IP's so several IP's can and will be the same depending on where they are routed by the service provider.

Apologies welcome
