New ID brings back all the old posts

[silverfaun]

I thought there was something wrong when I saw all these old posts first up then I saw a new ID had spam replied to them all.

I meant to say the poster in question seems to have a lot of old scores to settle, so a little bit of cash invested would seem like chump change compared to the amount of confusion and insult incurred.

Doesn't require an injection of cash.  Some people are just plain nasty and get their

jollies in wreaking havoc.

No I know it doesn't REQUIRE an injection of cash, but the astonishing amount of sheer nastiness and villification shown by said poster directed at some of the old CW posters is so intense, I think any amount of spending on various methods of circumventing detection would be considered money well spent.

Not saying that's the case, just saying it's a reasonble assumption. By me.

I see your point there, icy.

Their IP isn't static. Most people wouldn't go to the lengths they do to keep posting tripe here...especially in the early hours of the morning.

am*3, there are foolproof methods of identifying a source computer that is unique to the hardware and to no other in existence.

Also I have no doubt that eBay present you with a cookie that identifies your original account, that could be used to prevent other accounts being created on that hardware unless eBay OK the new creation.

Simple solution to multiple IDs but is it all worthwhile?

ok

[poddster]

can you imagine the work involved in OK-ing bone fide new ID registrations world wide?

Nup, too cost intensive

I recall one thread they posted saying that i was concerened as my son was playing with dolls and will that make him gay.

So many people didnt realise that it wasnt me posting the thread.

Ebay didnt care and didnt do anything about it

Just makes the weirdo's look bad, not the original poster.

[izabsmiling]

do you know who this person is ?

[poddster]

On that I firmly agree with you am*3 🙂

But dont get too used to my agreeing with you 😉

poddster.

I don't know who anyone is behind any ID.. I don't have superpowers or know how to hack into their computer and turn on their webcam to look at them.
