Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

about I.P addresses
I was wondering If I.P addresses were to the computor or to the persons E-mail. For example If a person e-mailed you from texas with one e-mail address and then was on vacation in ohio and used the same e-mail address would the I.P. be the same or differant I am trying to keep from being scamed any help would be great.
Thanks
Brian

If they were in fact emailing from 2 different areas, each of the emails would have it's own seperate I.P. addie. The I.P. address is handed out to a computer via a DNS server.
Is this person's address different for each email or the same? If they are the same then someone is most likely not vacationing over 1000 miles away.

Would that also be the same for yahoo, msn and hotmail accounts?

Can't speak for all of them, but Hotmail DOES include the user's IP address in the header info.
