Angel: Eve. So, I guess we should, I don't know, talk? Eve: About what? Angel: About what happened back there with us. Eve: Angel, it's not like this is the first time I've had sex under a mystical influence. I went to U.C. Santa Cruz.

Point your cursor at your name in one of your posts. The ID will be in the URL.

All I ever meant to say was "two posters who have the same IP address" isn't quite enough proof.
I don't think it is either.
It's enough proof to ask them about it. In your example, you guys work for the same company. And know each other. It's not random.
All I know about this is the Bronze Beta shows the exact same IP address for me and for one of the misspelling champions of the world, that is angry that Tara died in season 6. Luckily I'm the one that noticed it and drew attention to it. Also, I'd posted there long enough that people knew I wasn't playing a game. I would have felt very badly if people had thought I was the other poster. I post from my home. I have no idea how this other person has the same IP number as I do, except that we're both in Massachusetts, probably have the same ISP and it probably has to do with all that stuff that ita and y'all posted up there. t /non-techy blathering

Fay, you're #130.
DXMachina - Dec 27, 2002 4:30:25 pm PST #1616 of 10001
You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Fay, just click on your name, then look at the URL for your profile page. Or you can just hover the mouse pointer over your name, and look at the url the browser displays.
Rob - Dec 27, 2002 4:34:33 pm PST #1617 of 10001
Cindy, I suspect the IP address displayed at the Bronze Beta is the IP address your browser thinks you are using. If it starts with 192 or 10, then it's not the real one. Lots of folks behind Internet sharing routers get those addresses.
The logs that ita will check later have the actually IP address of the machine or router where the request originated.

A-ha!
130? Gosh, I'm a bad Fay, with my tardy registration.
t /ashamed.
Also? fwiw, I don't think there is a Hydra thing going on with a Poster of Many Faces. But what do I know?

Yeah I had a look at the posts again and I don't think it's him doing the two-headed thing.
He's got some interesting things to say, that's the annoying part. He just can't resist being a pain in the ass.

New, fully poseable Author!Knut.
I'll be happy if it's not him talking to himself. It was a nagging suspicion, that's all.
His first few posts today were fairly interesting. It's just the interaction that he can't do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think the 192 address will register in the server logs. I'm pretty sure it's NATed out.
What I can tell you from the logs, is that for the 24th, 25th and a wee bit of the 26th, people came to us from the following hosts:

One of the IP addresses was an URL that translates to Spanish. The other two I can't get to through my firewall.
This is a total of 547 referrals, with the most being from whedonesque, fireflyfans.net, twop, the official FF board, scifi.com, and google, in that order.
