    It takes moderator or administrator access to see you IP address. The rest is up to you with your posts and profile that you put up.

    I guess I don't have that feature. I'm on dial-up here at the house, not wifi, so I don't get alot of features on some sites. I'll have to check it out when I am on my laptop in town

    Common folk. They are so....not with it. I tend to forget things like that up in the ivory tower. The view is spectacular, by the way.

    I traced your IP to Rwanda. Is that right?

    Rick, Can you tell automatically if someone has more than one forum membership, if they do not let on or declare it.

    If they are using the same computer, they will have the same IP address. That's what stirred up the whole Remy/Matto/Volwest/Volsouth kerfuffle.

    I was wondering the same thing. I feel bad about my tone with slowcamaro on another thread, but he came out of the blue, with not much of a post history, and I was jumping to conclusions that he was actually someone else posting under a different name.

    1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
    2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

    I don't have the little computer icon, on this site. I do on a few other sites though. I don't use it much, but it has come in handy at times.
    Have Lights? Thank a Lineman!

    Okay, okay. Only special folks can see the computer. Alright? Sheeeesh. It's been so long since I've been a "commoner" I had forgotten. Carry on.
