I am intrigued by the potential of
http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?GetLocation
for locating false posters.

For example, yesterday I was able to use this service to establish
that Neil Brennen had posted a fake anonymous biography of me.

I moved my Internet service from Jamaica Queens to the Morris Heights
Section of the Bronx on July 25-26, 2005.

Since the move, my Verio postings have been from
NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.45.216.80

My last posting from Jamaica Queens was on July 25, 2005 at 4:05 AM
under What's Next for Chess HQ? where I wrote "Hanke wrote that
right here".

It was from
NNTP-Posting-Host: 151.202.94.119

My next posting was the following day from the Bronx:
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2005 14:12:26 GMT
NNTP-Posting-Host: 24.45.216.80

Under Subject: Chess and Supreme Court I wrote "I will have to
post this one on my website too."

This service should make it more easy to catch the fake posters.

It's not dependable just like any other IP locator. I just used it and
it says that I'm located in Dallas, Texas. I'm in the midwest but not
in Texas.

Don't trust it over much. Doublecheck it against a competing service,
such as MaxMind GeoIP City.

GeoBytes says I am in Uppsala, Sweden -- which is off by 550 kilometers.
Don't know how they got that. Maxmind at least gets the city right.

If that is so, then by the same logic Larry Parr, "Jr" and "Cynic"
are all the same person, as they generally show the same
NNTP-Posting-Host. Yet they insist otherwise, and apparently it is
possible for different people to show the same host ID if they all
happen to access the web through the same Netscape server, according to
a recent post by Liam Too.
So I'm not sure if the 68.84.120.191 host ID indicates Brennen or
just someone else logging on via Yahoo.

In addition to trying to identify the fake posters who posted more
than one hundred fake messages under my name during the recent
election period, I would like to identify several fake posters who
inhabited this group in the past. Among them a

Dr. Rev. Calvin Hindoo Qusz Jr.
SlamStoan
The Old Professor
Liam
The Dirty Vicar
The Masked Bishop

It has been widely suspected that the identies of some of them are Jim
Eade, Tim Hanke, Jerry Graham and possibly Bruce Draney, but this has
never been proven.

Sam,

I hope you know that Liam and Liam Too are two separate and distinct
persons. Liam is John Smith and Liam Too is Lance Smith.

Where was this "fake anonymous" biography posted? And more importantly,
under what screen name? I've been using "The Historian" as a handle for
a few months now.

Sure. You posted it right he

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?...did=2010 3784

Note your ID 68.84.120.191

You did not use a screen name.

You then reposted what you wrote to this group under Salamalaikum
from kalash velley Chitral and added the comment

"Did Sloan write this? It sounds like someone is mocking him."

All and all a typical sneaky and despicable act, so characteristic of
Neil Brennen.

That is Wikipedia, a website that asks that people in the know correct
errors. The biographical entry had some errors, so I corrected them.

Since it's not a newsgroup, I don't see how I could have used a screen
name.

Yes, I wrote that.

Neil Brennen.


So posting corrections to Wikipedia is "sneaky and despicable"?
