Solve : Anoying guy.?

Answer»

There is a guy on the forum of my clan that is imitating me.
He's posting as guest and abusing my name.
Is there anyway, me or a mod could trace his IP and ban him from the forum?

thanks in advance

Jonas Don't you think you'd be better off ASKING the forum's owner?

Or if you're the owner...
What platform is the forum?
Have you considered disabling guest posting?Jonas. Haven't seen you in a long time.Quote from: CBMatt on June 11, 2008, 04:08:21 AM

Well I'm not the owner but as Its a clan site I know the owner very well.
And he disabled the guest post and gave me the IP's, he could see them as mod.
So I traced them and we found out who did it. (A guy who got kicked from the Clan.)
As its a clan forum we can Identify everyone by locating the IP as we all know where they live.
Now he claims he didn't do it and he said someone else tricked him using a proxi server.
So my next question is: Can it be that someone used a poxi server to tweak his locating (e.g. he's being I germany and the poxi tells he's in ENGLAND when you locate it.) and when you Locate the IP you would end up somewhere else?

BTW: Yeah as I'm in a gaming clan now on COD4 and we are in the TOP 10 most of my time goes to that. but its good to see that you guys are STILL here. And you're still very helpful!
Yes, it is possible that someone was using a proxy to disguise their actual IP.... but it is extremely unlikely that someone did that and the spoofed IP just happened to be the exact same as the guy that was banned. He's a tweaker.What country and ladder are you in jonas??

Im in Australia and we use PAM 4 cyber gamer mod for clan matches

we are 6th on our ladder.

it has 200 teams.

So you're saying that it is impossible to change your locating by using a poxi?

We are playing on Console Gaming and we are placed 15th now as we had a BAD losing streak of 7 last week. But we will climb up again. Quote from: Jonas Wauters on June 13, 2008, 08:24:49 AM

No, it's possible to change location using a proxy. What was said was it's not LIKELY this proxy had the exact same IP address as this other member who is claiming he didn't do it.to put it simple, the guy is lying about not doing it.
He's trying to say that while there are a billion IP addresses floating around the world, someone else hacked into the forum and used his IP address and location to take a jab at your clan. The odds of that are very small. Try one in a billion.interesting???
