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.
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.
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.
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.
I blame Shrift.
I think that's probably the list of what sites the posters were at when they linked to us, no?
Yeah, ita, are those the HTTP_REFERER addresses? Not the same as the REMOTE_IP or whatever?
