The problem with your theory is the only way they could get his ISP information would be from Jim since ISP information isn't posted anywhere.

I'm a mod on another board which is owned by my son. ISP's are logged but can only be seen by those with admin capacities. The only reason we need to have that information is in the event we need to ban by ISP someone who trolls excessively or posts certain banned pictures.



No offense, but isn't there an implication in your post, whether intended or not, that FR has released this personal info about Buckhead? Shouldn't you post this comment to Jim, also, since you reference him? As a question to the owner of this forum?

In no way did I imply Jim or FR had released Buckhead's ISP information to anyone. Most owners of forums protect their members information to the extent they only release it to law enforcement if needed.

Please read further where I explain I'm a mod on another forum and why admin's need to have access to ISP information. I said nothing about releasing ISP information!

From my post: "The only reason we need to have that information is in the event we need to ban by ISP someone who trolls excessively or posts certain banned pictures."

As far as pinging Jim to my post, I've mentioned his name in past posts without pinging him. I would have pinged him if I had a question or if I wanted confirmation of any point I was wanting to make. I didn't ask Jim a question, I shared my experience on another board. I am pinging him now since you pinged him.
