IPs DO lie.

24.66.94.144 is NOT the IP address of any single user out there. When people connect to shaw, they are automatically directed through an invisible proxy. In this case, it is 24.66.94.144.

Almost everyone on Shaw will at one point in time have their IP address show as 24.66.94.144, because that's a proxy server that serves hundreds of people in Winnipeg.

Obviously, the people that are saying that IPs are indisputable proof definitely need more experience.

Vey well put big_pegger. This make absolute sense. I know 100% that Wpghotie and Cahrlieboy are 2 different ladies. I think the mods should reconsider.

big_pegger is completely correct.
Will, you are also correct in that they are 2 different SP's that are unknown to each other.
The banning/ip addresses situation has been resolved as stated in the lounge by FredZed

I stand corrected. It was my understanding that all computers send a IP address when on-line. But I guess it is the server you are using not the computer.

Sorry boys... girls...

My mistake..
