A nice and fair arrangement. Thank you.

Sorry for the late reply. No short cut for this case. I have split the thread into 2 threads : Buddhism and Guan Yin Citta & Master Lu. Thanks.

Hi Curiousparty,
Please post you stories and other information related to Guan Yin Citta & Master Lu only in the thread. If you are posting them in Buddhism thread, they will be deleted and you will be warned. Thanks.

Hi Behappyalways,
I do not want to delete the thread, Instead, I have split some posts. Please continue to contribute in the Buddhism thread. Thanks.

Thanks Cyclone and CityFarmer. This helps to clear the confusion in the thread.

After an investigation, moderators have reasonably confirmed that Yewkim and Petertan, are the same person, a male. We have decided to ban both accounts. He has fooled others as two different persons, in his recent post. He has abused the trust we granted.

Actually i assumed Petertan is a young friend of Yewkim. Nobody talks like that about another person in this forum Big Grin

If there's one thing i would like to learn from the moderators is how they get all these info from Smile

Moderators have shown restraint and openness in this forum, and at the same time draw a very clear line on the sand. Thanks again for making this forum intellectually engaging and not emotional or hubris driven.

A bit off topic but to answer your question,

When you login to the forum, your computer's IP address is automatically recorded. If the same 2 accounts login from the same IP all the time you can conclude they are probably the same person.

So unless you have a remote server which you can connect, to make it looks like you are login from another IP into your second account, it will be very easy for the Mod to tell if you are using the same computer to login with multiple accounts. Of course most people who try to use multiple accounts to be "funny" won't have the technical expertise to do that. and those with the technical expertise will not bother with something so "childish"

That's what I understood from the old dial-up... but is that true for fibre connection?

Mod, just out of curiosity, if that person logs in with a different devise and account(just remember not to mix up which account goes to which devise), then we won't know right?

also when you ban the person will you also ban them from reading or just posting?

Good job mod.

Great job Moderator! Just a naive question. Once an account is ban, can the same person create another account using the same computer and start posting?

Yes, they can create another account using the same computer and start posting again. Some clones do that time and time again.

We can not ban them from reading, just ban them from posting.

Yes, your understanding is right. CityFarmer always uses this method.

Just to comment from technical side. The technology behind diap-up and fibre are still remain the same, only the hardware (level 1) is different.

Most residential line uses dynamic IP, instead of static IP. Most of time devices have the same IP, but not necessary true all the time.

I wouldn't comment on the approaches we used for obvious reason, but it is more than just IP. I would like to give credit to cyclone, who has an impressive skill to find out more convincing "truth". Unless all of us are reasonably convinced, otherwise we will give them the benefit of doubt.

Laugh.. not only cyclone, even Google knows you quite well.
Nowadays, the web technology is rather intrusive in probing your online character.
