as TDC can now track IP addresses I though id put up a defence against it.
AOL. I have AOL and AOL as people know is a real bugger as far as IP addresses are concerned.
Take the Natomic website. Ive never been on it but as soon as I went on the website to have a look round a annoying screen pops up saying I cant enter and if I dont know why I can Contact them. Well I WOULD if it wasnt for the fact the link it gives me brings up the same screen.
Anyway another example.
Newgrounds uses IP addresses in its voting for games system that means I have to be REALLY quick in voting for new movies or sombody else using AOL does.
Not being able to vote for some movies on Newgrounds also has a good side, you could just log in with your Newgrounds account and get the points for voting even for movies you didn't vote on

we're not doing anything we weren't doing before. your IPs have always been stored. we just now have a script to crossreference everyone's so we can detect people with double accounts. we also get the DNS of the IP so we can tell if its dynamic or not, obviously we will get a lot of results if we run a query on an AOL IP, so we won't be suspiscious. don't worry about it
i second that. its a bit like when people say "acks" instead of "ask"
