I would like to add that yes, I think it got to the point that we needed some way to find out... but surely there's View Source...?

Displaying my IP address makes me feel icky and dirty. I'm definitely getting a firewall just in case.

Well it's certainly ruined my fun.

Grrr. Firewall a go-go.

I really hate IP addresses. You never get the same one twice...

See, I'm a completely different IP address now. This is, of course, a little bit of magic...as Daniel Polo or whatever his name was, would say, �That's Magical!�

It's amazing what happens when you disconnect and then re-dial up, eh kids?

I am eminently recognisable, having a rare combination of numbers and dots after my name.

I'm just impressed that Arma managed to disconnect, reconnect, write a post AND successfully send it in 40 seconds.....

what? why? can't get rid of them now!

Ahem. Maybe I was wrong, then.

Anyone else encountering the "great Rob S speak not to you, mere mortal!" seefect? it would seem I am out of favour.

they're there to prevent anonymous posters.

they've been there all along, hidden in the source code. Rob's just decided to introduce the visual deterrant :O)

Just want to point out in advance, before the inevitable computer-illiterate finger pointing starts: Steven and I (and Sheep, for that matter) both use the same free ISP service in the same geographical region, and have sometimes ended up with similar (and on one occasion identical) IP addresses, but WE ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON. This can be proved in a court of law.

Thank you, drive through...

Ooh, nah, Rob talks to all you mere mortals: long as you ask sensible questions. Why would you be out of favour (apart from that quasi-pornographic-farmyard debacle)

>Anyone else encountering the "great Rob S speak not to you, mere mortal!" seefect? it would seem I am out of favour.

subbes, I'm very busy with lots of other projects at the mo... I'm not quite sure what your expecting me to reply to.

Important note: if any of you want to contact me, email me - if I can reply, I will... if you post on a forum, I could easily miss it.

Something to do with the cakeshop, a couple of times. Then I dared to ask him why the TV forum was down.

Still owe the man a pint, too, I think. Still, if he doesn't want it, that's his look out and I shall have to give someone else the pint.

>subbes, I'm very busy with lots of other projects at the mo... I'm not quite sure what your expecting me to reply to.

It was something about the cakeshop. No big bother, just four times in a row of no reply to e-mail can be worrying. i suggest you employ a secretary...

Mr. Rob S,

I would just like to make the point that I think IP addressing is shite.

That is all.




Don't read too much into this... There *is* no deeper meanings, venom, spite, etc, etc attached.

Yeah, I reckon we should just shout down the phone what address we need to go to!! Up the revolution!!

Sorry Ailie, crap joke.

>Sorry Ailie, crap joke.


I didn't get it, so I shall resign myself to the fact that I'm dense.

ooh - who am I then? submit your guesses below.

I like seeing my IP address, as I had no idea previously what it was. Mind you, now I know it, I have no idea what to do with it.

use it to choose your lottery numbers..

asumming you do the Poor Tax of course...

Just wanted to see...

Bet mine is the same as yesterday.

But... but... I haven't reconnected! how can it be different?

brain... melting...

You just are!
