Can we check IP addresses?
Mods, are we allowed to check IP addresses to see if some accounts are repeats? The reason I ask is because all of a sudden we've had a number of accounts trolling on here simply bashing the state and saying it's backwards and geographically ugly, we all know that's not true at all  It ticks me off when people come on here and bash a place we all love. |

Alright, Nameless, on the prowl. Good job, there kid, your training is nearly complete. Colleen and LR are the top investigators. Learn from them. They rock. |

Honestly, I don't know if forum members (as opposed to mods) can check IP addresses.
Do you see a little computer icon that you can click on in the area above the user's post? If so, you can.
I can't log out as an anonymous user and do this because obviously as a guest I can't do much of anything, and for me to create another account would be violating the terms of service.
Jammie will follow through for you; she's good (REAL GOOD) people..
As far as putting someone on ignore, it doesn't suit my taste Schousse. If there is someone submitting posts that are false and trashing my area I want to know about it and feel compelled to respond. To each their own though..

It started out as a joke to (kiddingly) discourage new comers. but it's hard tell whether or not the one in mention is serious or not.

Yes, if it's the person I think you're referring to.  If you ever have a very problematic child, just DM the suspect's name to either Synopsis or myself or any mod you chose to DM. We'll check it out for ya.
And thank you for the compliment, Synopsis.
