Get out the stamps and send letters - that's much better than anything else;)

I'm currently trying to remember which hand I use my pen with...

I guess it's the one where my tea cup isn't. 



But I'm not sure

great idea, send letter to the forums - you'll get prompt response LOL

As with all things internet related if you are concerned about a site... do not visit that site. You can know all you can about intarweb security and there will always be someone who knows something you don't. I find the places that are the most useful to me that exhibit proper admin practices and reasonable TOS/privacy statements and stick to those. It's also good to remain cordial, polite and helpful when actually posting somewhere. A good rule of thumb is... would you say that in real life? If not, don't type it. Just my thoughts on the matter.

Yes, your IP says everything about you.  For example, yours says you have a soft spot for punk rock and decent beer.

Mine must say "penchant for posting"?

Say I wanted to join another forum for example.
 
I want to be contactable by email (obviously not using my name or usual email address), but other than that I want to be completely anonymous and untraceable.
 
Does anyone know how much information my IP Address gives others about my location/internet provider etc?
 
 
 


I think you're worrying too much mate. I can understand that some people have their dirty little secrets that they are ashamed of and would rather other people didn't know about, but these are enlightened times and going on the the Leeds United fan forum no longer holds the same stigma it once did. It's only mildly repugnant these days, so post away from the comfort of your own home and fret ye not. It's not like any non-deviants will be looking anyway ;)

PS. You might wanna have a few dodgy porn sites open in your browser to quickly flick across to in case the lady of the house comes in. Wouldn't want her to catch you looking at that Leeds stuff  !

I don't know about the Leeds forum, but one of the vilest places I've ever had the misfortune to visit is the General Chat section of Not606 (which was created after the fallout from the BBC dropping the original 606)

No subject is taboo to these "people"
