Any subsequent accounts will be removed as well, IP tracking is very easy with the forum software....

I'm very curious how this works so well supposedly with all the Forums (and I work in IT hence my curiosity).

My home Internet is with Optus and every 28 days I'm issued with a new dynamic IP that many thousands of other people have previously used. I can also force a new one if I disconnect the modem for an hour or so.

At work, we have a bank of IP addresses that the outside world sees (about 20 at least that I know of) and I know of one guy in the office with an XR6T who's a member (just reads though) and with several Hundred Thousand employees sharing these IP's, I doubt we're the only ones.

Now, there are far more accurate methods of tracking such as by MAC address which for most people they wouldn't have a clue how to beat and I have no idea whether this is used at all?

My hunch is that most people either sign back up straight away hence using an IP previously used with their banned account or their mannerisms are picked up by mods and then scrutinised and investigated.

I've been stuck with the Getz now for a bit over a week now, and during that time I've been trying to work out why anyone would ever willingly buy one of them. It's a hopeless car.

It's embarrassing driving something that can take over a minute to go from 0-80 (the speed limit along Geelong road) when taking off from the lights and going up a slight hill.

I don't feel safe driving it.

Can't wait to get my car back. Least then I can keep up with traffic.

stay on topic please...

also doing that sort of speed is bad mmmcaaaaaaaaay

Dont forget the use of a Proxy Server....

It wont take rocket science to work that et or SILVR are posting again...99.999999% of their posts are on the one subject... :nerd8:

Much the same as its easy to pick another banned member who's had multiple accounts removed once we pick up on it...which doesnt take long...

Pookey, the source and destination mac gets dropped every time the packet changes networks. For example between me and the forum the source and destination mac would have changed 15 times.
