The point about IP being (possibly) useful to prove that sockpuppetry is going on is still valid. But we seem to agree that was just paranoia now, so it's pretty much irrelevant.
Yeah, having read the thread now, I don't see sock-puppetry at all.
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Sorry, Rob. I was just trying to guess why you thought grabbing the IP address was useful.

I am kind of hopeful certain posters decide we're too boring to deal with and go away...
That's why I posted. 'Tis my gift.
I have a question about IP number assignment based on the earlier explanations, but as I'm not weighing in on the unanimous discussion, I'm going to post it over it in Buffistechnology.

Sorry if I was paranoid. It was a germ of a hint of an idea, and I didn't mean to get everyone worked up.

Evening, O Buffistas. This is notice to the admins -- ita, in specific -- that I did get that email, and thanks.
Also notice to the community at large that if you are a total ass and fail to respond to an email from a friend in Atlanta, and she remembers you're a Buffista, and she emails the admins afraid you are dead? The admins will provide proof you're not dead on demand. Not part of a cult, that they can't promise. That's for Phoenix 2.0.

Thrive to spite them
I think we need a Stompy Foot to come white font some spoilery info in Deena's post in Firefly. Post number 1264 (I think).

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Taken care of.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Do we have a name for Natter 6? Cheese?

There will be no further discussion, dammit.

We are like fifteen posts away from the 10,000 mark on V, so, any other Stompies around?
