Also, I grew up in Erie.

i have always been curious as to whether big websites like google, yahoo, or even just porn sites, keep track of the IP's that visit the site and can keep track of what activity has gone on from each IP.

yeah every site logs ip addy.

I just sold your phone number to phone sales folks, and btw your paypal password suxorz. I mean really, how secure did you think "cellar_door" would be after the donnie darko dvd came out?

but does elite mean you can get away with more? do elite members get banned?

Hey, give me some credit. It was spur-of-the-moment, and I'd been drinking. On top of that, your mother really wore me out that night. I'll try harder next time, I promise.

To answer your question: Elite members, like everyone else, can certainly be banned. It generally doesn't happen for fourth-grade crap like this, though.

Now people can start opening up new lines of credit. No need for your existing ones.

Fool.


Now all is needed is basically SSN, which is mucho easy to find. Get some work info on you and bam, new credit.

Some new bank accounts, loans, all the good stuff.

Can be done very very easy.

Hope you have bad credit so no one decides to steal it.

Good luck with that, Champ. I'll give you $100 if you can tell me my Soc. number, since it's "mucho easy to find." It takes more than publicly available information to open a line of credit. I'm no more vulnerable than any other schmuck out there who won't pay the extra for an unlisted number, and the geniuses that click on every phishing email are such easy prey that the we all have less to worry about.

Dude, that's not what I meant when I picked "cellar_door" as my password

[addendum]Stupid Zim Hosein language filter. Piece of Zim Hosein made me re-type the entire Zim Hosein post twice. If these boards are going to be so PC, they should at least try to keep the text of a post, instead of making the user retype the whole Zim Hosein thing when a "bad word" is found.

LOL! nice, everytime I swear from now on, I'm gonna put Zim's name in it. thanks for the idea

No problem. I've never started an Internet trend before, so I'd be honored if you guys would take this one up. Make sure you put his name in italics, though...gotta be true to the original
