I didn't think they are that dumb. Knowing this (that they did not know....) I would suggest Mr Admin take off the picture and don't give these folks a clue how you found them out.
HAHAH! I laughed when I read that, too. The thought that someone would even say such a thing boggles my mind but I’d bet that someone, somewhere, would say, “Duhh…ok, if you say so”.
Well, they know full well that their IP address(es) can be traced. That's why she challenged the admin to look at her IP address to see that it was different from the skycraper. It was different in most cases, in fact almost every single page load was from a different IP because they commonly use proxy servers to conceal their identity. But apparently either she forgot to use the proxy when she created the "skycraper" user or the proxy node to which it was routed on that occasion happened to be the same. I had to dig through several pages of logs to find the same IP, but there was at least this one occurrence.
i only shop at the well-known sites (MF, KD, DD, DX, HKE) so i didnt care for her website, giveaways (1xAAA cr*ppy cell for FREE? yes mememeplease!!), special offers. at least this, when i look at her pic i am thinking hmmh she looks sympathic (hehe .. that one is for Vectrex ;=), doesnt she?
