How to verify the origin of the forum visitors

Post by path_finder »

On the index page, at the lower right corner is a small map.
By clicking on it we can get some very interesting data, since Scott has removed the IP adress.
After one minute the map is updated with some yellow dots: the location of the connected guest/members.
Below is the name and location for these yellow dots: with the date/time of the connection for each one, it is not difficult to identify from where they are coming, including the trolls if they are connected in the same time...
It is easy for me: Bamako Mali (until the 26th of July)
I cannot imagine why nobody though on this before, including myself? It is so simple!...
