There is a problem lately with looking up AOL members on the member search in the admin forum. I did a search on a member and got like 7 matches and one of them was straw the other faceman. I was talking to fuggin about it. Most of the time it is with AOL members. But maybe it's a problem with cable users, i dunno?

But just warning you ahead of time if you do a search becareful, check the extension to the e-mail if it matches to be sure it is the same person or check the number of characters in the passwords to be sure if you are banning someone you think is an old banned member.

i did searches on others and got members who haven't posted in ages,. like our newest member "Tar Baby". Or i searched under a name mavric signed up with a couple weeks ago and got froy and the brain.

So just an FYI.

I agree... I was talking to GS the other night about this... i ran somebody's IP (i forget who, maybe GS will remember) and it came back with like 22 matches...on that list was TeenSlut, VirginGrrl & a few other regulars...all but 3 of the e-mail adresses had "@aol.com" ...so just be sure to cross check names & e-mail when you run an IP seach... i would hate to ban someone (or see someone banned) just because they had the same IP because of AOL...

although, it seems that it is not specific to AOL... look, i just did an IP search on NJStrawberry and got the following:

Yoko [email protected] 7-25-01 Member Yes 2

I'm not sure if it is an AOL thing, since i know for a fact that NJStraw has a cable modem (we're on the same system) she only uses AIM... I'm just saying maybe we should make sure to cross reference names that show up under the same IP search.

Dial up and DSL customers are usually on a rotating IP system, especially AOL. ISP's use this to keep people from running web servers and/or game servers, as they hog bandwidth. Cable modems are usually dedicated IP's.

I did a search on drudge last week and i got exactly the same matches.

Meaning everyone but straw on that list has NOT signed into the board in a very long time. I have never heard nor seen most of those posters. Yoko is one of straws names that she had. The others are not. Straw is on a cable modem and as jeff said her IP is dedicated, but how would it match all those others? Since they haven't signed on their IP's are as last logged in and straws is a pretty much constant.

Bottom line just keep your best judgements up.

cable modems are weird...people can share ip's through proxy modems...i dont know exactely how optimium or roadrunner set up thier networks...bottom line IP is NOT the way to go for identifying people...

OK...then is it possible to get more search options on the Admin board? Would it be possible (i guess what i really mean is would it be to difficult) to set up a search by sign-on date or something else...

as far as other ways to check up on people...I tend to double check the e-mail... for example: I took part of Danillo's e-mail (just "SKANK") and got the following:

Christoper Walken letzskank[email protected] 1-11-01 Member Yes 0
Danilo hangupthephoneuSKANK@opieanthony.com 10-5-00 Member Yes 1779
JohnRocker skank[email protected] 1-7-01 Member Yes 0

this is not an absolute way to cross check...but i've found it helps... just thought i'd share...
