Only two guys are on my perma-ignore/forever shunned list. You are not one of them.

Damn who knew.

Sez the guy with a C4.

The thing about VPN use, is you must use it 100% of the time, otherwise sooner or later, your actual ISP address does become revealed. Forums not only log your IP address when you register, but every single post you make also logs an IP address. So if a user fails to connect to their VPN just once and makes a post, then I have their actual IP logged and it becomes useful data. Over the course of weeks/months/years, this tends to happen to even the most diligent of VPN users.

10+ years ago, VPN use was quite rare. This subject wasn't savvy enough to hide his IP back then, and would typically rejoin this site when traveling, so as not to become detected. But he'd continue posting once back home, and then a positive IP match would be made.
So next time he rejoins this site (and he most certainly will), he will sneak in by virtue of using a VPN, and may go undetected for a while. But will eventually become complacent and post from his home IP.

Beyond IP address, there's other means of ID'ing someone, and those I'm not going to share publicly, as it would only be a road map for those trying to sidestep a ban (or in this case, a dozen bans).

Wow, interesting stuff, thanks. And written easily enough for someone like me to grasp.

So does that mean you like/love libtards and Commies?

NAT/PAT can be identified no matter the VPN.
