CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted October 13, 2009 I wasn't sure if this question went some place else, but since its a FORUM question, I decided to ask it here. On forums, is it alright to use IP changers? So people can't get your information and stalk you everywhere? I was wondering because I wanna sign up at a place, but one of the people who has stalked my sister is there but I really want a account. Would it be wrong and not allowed if I were to sign up using a IP changer? Thank you all for your time and thank you for reading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Polraudio 122 Report post Posted October 13, 2009 Depends on what position the stalker is in. Is it an Admin or Mod. If its neither they cannot see your IP so you will be safe. Admins's and mods are not aloud to give out personal information without your say so. If they do you can take serious action against them and put them behind bars or sew them. I would try to contact the admin and tell them whats going on and they might be able to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isaacsol 10 Report post Posted October 13, 2009 Yea, we are not allowed to give out personal information. We can only disclose known spammer IP's to other people to prevent SPAM. In general, we cannot give it out to random people, so don't worry. Oh yea, it is 'sue' now 'sew', 'sue' = soo, sew = so. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiriashi 117 Report post Posted October 13, 2009 Wait so is that a yes or a no? Can you change your IP or not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 Its the Admin and mods that are doing it. They've flammed my fanfictions (pieces of my writing) for no reason...okay, they don't like that I like something different than them. Kiriashi: Its possible to change it, but I wanna know if its okay and if I will get banned for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Polraudio 122 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 If the admin and mods are doing it then that place is not worth your time and the admin needs to learn how to grow up and be an admin. Quote me and send him a message if you want. I cant stand staff being mean to people its not right. If you need someone to back you up give me the link and i will join and do that for you. I can get people to change their mind if i have to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Polraudio 122 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 The only thing you can accomplish by getting an ip is just the internet provider. They cant find out where you live. I don't think you will get in trouble using a program to change it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anman 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 If a place actually banned you for changing your IP, the administration is beyond stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrimsonInferno 35 Report post Posted October 15, 2009 Sorry, Kiriashi. I didn't mean to make it sound that way >.< I haven't done it yet, but I wanted to make sure its not against vBulletin rules or if I could get banned. The only thing you can accomplish by getting an ip is just the internet provider. They cant find out where you live.I don't think you will get in trouble using a program to change it. Yea, they've done it before. You put the IP into Internet Frog IP that is provided free of charge, and it tells the person who has the IP exactly where that person is.
