I been wondering...

<< < (2/4) > >>

Cyberman:
In this day and age it might be wise not to give out such information.
I am wary of anyone asking for information like this.
The only people who need this type of information are those coordinating the project and to an extent those involved in the work.
This is an era of paralyzing through intimidation, lawyers, and just plain sick people, you need to guard your identity just like your life.

Keep in mind some people aren't as altruistic in there endeavors, as can be witnessed by the daily tally of world events.  Not saying be paranoid but be careful.

What? If that where the case then this should be an Anonymous forum, cause we are giving out our username everytime we post. You cannot find out somebodies identity just by their username as usernames are generally fiction and have no connection to the members actual identity.

Srethron Askvelhtnod:
Agreed that it doesn't make much sense to give out the information at this point, but I don't think any legal types will pay much attention to this unless it's obviously (1) producing results and (2) going somewhere they don't want to allow.

Wait, what. What is someone going to do with a username. If someones name was in it then thats just stupid and they shouldnt have done it in the first place, but with just a username you can't do anything, try typing mine into google one of the first links is a lesbian terrorist comic book character, seriously try it. :wink:

*WOOT first post*

First off, welcome to the forums. :-)
Secondly, if you'll look in the bottom right hand corner of each post you make, you'll notice there is a little "Logged".

That's your IP address being logged, so I'm sure if anyone smart enough wanted to, they could easily hack the forums, get each IP address, corresponding to each username, and track through the details given in registration (which I assume are stored).

Not saying it's happening or anything, just an idea of what could happen, if any people did want to find out identies.  Keep in mind, in this day and age, there are untold ways of getting peoples details through the smallest of means.
