I know, strange isn't it, all you have to do is read my posts to know that. I'm a Philly guy, but you're not going to find me at that IP. And my plants don't reside at that IP either. Remember I said I work on computers for a living. It's called being smart, next time I would advise PMing memebers when you would like to publically post their location. i could trace you to, anyone can trace anyone here it's not something new. But most people would refrain from saying this is where you live. Since I openly say I am from Philly its no big deal. Notice that IP isn't in Philly?

And sometimes I show up in New Jersey, and sometimes Houston.

Oh and an easy way to get someone IP is if you administer a web site, say ipdouche.com make a post and say hey check out this link and guess what you have IPs. Safest things to do are don't post from your grow house/area, use someone elses computer, use a proxy, and maybe learn about how the internet works...i.e.DNS servers what are they how do they work, proxy servers etc. Also they make IP masking software and so on and so forth. the thing that made me so mad is it's always been like this. Some dude gets banned comes back under another name and says oh my god everyone freak out...so I say no need to freak and then you publically post my location, I love it. Anyone around here ever grow plants?

I'm sorry if it made you angry or something, it was a joke.. I saw that you said you were from there on a different thread so I figured you were cool with people knowing. I dont actually know how to find out where people are from by their IP address haha. Sorry though:blsmoke:

No I need to settle down too, it's cool. I was actually angry at NSW for coming on here earlier today and going bonkers cause he got banned. He was trying to tell people how this site is unsecure and this and that. Then I saw this post and thought dude was NSW under a new screen name. It's cool really, I'm fine with you but I am not fine when some guy gets banned after numerous warnings and spams the hell out of the board with bogus info just cause he's gotta be a baby....This is a grow site, I like my grow site, dude has been causing drama since day 1 so it got under my skin.

Teach me how DNS Servers work! And private msg me where my IP shows me as coming from. Please!

P.S. I sorta grow, but I am giving away my plants to a friend of a friend. Too risky at the moment.
