IP Address Trace

[WWhittle]

Does anyone on here have the ability to trace an IP address off of another forum?

[DolSVT00]

I can, Im sure mike can as well, but we would need an IP. If it's a proxy, then no way.

Yeah, I don't have the IP. I have no idea how that works. I wasn't sure if some people had the ability to go to a post in a thread and find the IP and then trace it.

Only mod's can. For the most part people who can do it with out being a mod are too lazy to bother.

And the only reason I can think of to need someone's ip addy is for shen's or forum drama, both of which are silly reasons.

Or if someone owes someone some money

True, then it becomes a police/fbi type thing. Of which, can be handled by said law enforcement. Or hire a P/I.

which than usually is more than what is owed. I have found out when someone owes you money and you get the law involved NOTHING EVER COMES OUT OF IT

Very true. Maybe a P/I would be best route. Because forum owner's/mod's would seriously have to be mentally retarded to give out IP addy's to anyone for any reason.

Liability would be the reason not to give that info out.


thats just IMO~

[WWhittle]

Wasn't for either of those reasons. I got what i needed today, thanks anyway.
