You're right, 13 years old and living with parents would be damn near impossible to dox, for me. I don't know if the India part matters. You just don't have enough in the system for me to find.... no mortgage, police records, credit card purchases (a bank account, for that matter), possibly no cell phone...etc.

Using an IP to find someone is damn near useless. People that don't want to be found will often have some spoofed IP and people like me who use their phone as a hotspot generally have an IP that has little/nothing to do with their location. Google thinks I'm in Texas and I never did anything to make it think that except NOT turn location on. I'm sure Google could easily find out my state other ways but, every time I do a search related to a location it dumps me in Texas if I am not really specific.

I flew over Texas on the way to California once and on the way back once. Other than that I've never been to Texas.

Finding someone, virtually anyone, is not some great skill. All you need is some research and a few bucks. The more productive research you do the less bucks it costs. Some people can be found for free and those people are generally VERY easy to find cause they do nothing to maintain their own privacy. Like people that use the same profile name everywhere and live on Facebook/Twitter/etc. Those people fill out profiles in full and leave out nothing but their actual physical address. A real name and a state is all it takes to start narrowing them down in a "people finder" search and for like 12 bucks you can find out EVERYTHING about them. From there you can take that info to other more nefarious places and essentially copy their entire identity. It's actually quite simple it just costs a little money.

@gypsy
Ok.No need to dox me(even though you might not be able to do that as I live in India).
13 year old guy living in a small house with his parents and a super super curious brother can take drugs without getting caught.Don't know where I can get some xanbars(possible reference intended).I am like 6 months away from getting my own laptop.
What PM?


@adam

I don't know about this second gorilla stuff. I simply said I'm not wasting my time and resources to prove I could dox this dude, for his amusement. I also completely ignored his drug-induced response. There was never even a PM for me to read...lol. Maybe he's talking to people that only he can see.

@ What about a downvote system for forum members above, say, 100 posts?

2500 posts.

Hey
[Back on topic]

What about a downvote system for forum members above, say, 100 posts?
We could then help moderate. after 10 downvotes a thread (or post) could either be removed, hidden from public or in similar way, put in quarantine for a moderator to decide its fate.

It doesn't have to be a downvote, it could be in the form of a "report" button, in the corner next to the Quote options.

Delete, delete, and... duuuuuuuuuuh-lete.

See, I was gonna continue amusing myself, but then I realized you posted rap lyrics, and I said, "Eh, what's the point."

[ijazz]

@Phenom
I don't know if you made an Eminem reference there.

@focalor
You ARE Richard Attenborough,right? Oh wait.You are the third gorilla

[Phenom]

[generally speaking]
Take your personal disputes, and rage wars to the PM, or better yet face to face then slap box.

Don't do this on the forums!

[Focalor]

...what?

I think what we are witnessing is two internet variety silverback gorillas battling for dominance and mating rights. Fascinating stuff. If only Richard Attenborough were here to narrate it.

[Dutch]

...what?

Look, I was gonna go easy on you not to hurt your feelings
But I'm only going to get this one chance
(Six minutes, six minutes)
Something's wrong, I can feel it
(Six minutes, six minutes, Slim Shady, you're on)
Just a feeling I've got
Like something's about to happen
But I don't know what
If that means, what I think it means, we're in trouble
Big trouble. And if he is as bananas as you say
I'm not taking any chances
You were just what the doctor ordered

I'm beginning to feel like a Rap God, Rap God
All my people from the front to the back nod, back nod
Now who thinks their arms are long enough to slap box, slap box?
They said I rap like a robot, so call me rap-bot

But for me to rap like a computer must be in my genes
I got a laptop in my back pocket
My pen'll go off when I half-**** it
Got a fat knot from that rap profit
Made a living and a killing off it
Ever since Bill Clinton was still in office

[ijazz]

Ok.I'll give you the mail I don't use anymore if you find out those details.Send through PM.Also in about 20 years you can visit me but I might be somewhere else and I might not be on this website and I might not even remember you if I hear your name.Your name is...cant say it here.Check your PM ok?

@focalor

You must not have an Android phone or if you do it's a throw away one. I was more or less required to have a Google account just to activate my phone. I personally don't give 2 shits if they know everything about me. I haven't had ANY problems with spam calls and actually find that using my phone the way Google intended makes it nicer. I fought tooth and nail with Google on my last phone and it was miserable. Funny thing about phones, if you feel like you are being harassed/stalked/whatever you can simply throw it in the river and voila, they got nothing. The ONLY thing I fake us my location but, it's never been a secret where I live in the first place. I just don't want to be tracked to the foot.

@ijazz

It's like the incredible hulk... Bill Bixby doesn't bother hulking up for people's amusement...but piss him off...If you want to play "hide and seek" all you have to do is convince me that finding you and making you miserable is my new favorite way to spend my time.

Forced Social login from social media sites can actually kill a community.

Yep. That, among other things, is the reason why plenty of Youtube users have migrated to other places. Granted, I think Google bought up Youtube at some point and that's why they require a google login, but... it's still pissed off a few folks, myself included. I have a Google login, and I still use Youtube (mostly because I'm too lazy to go anywhere else), but it annoys the hell out of me that every time I use that Google login, they bug me wanting me to add my cell phone number to my info so that, in their words, "you won't lose access to your account." Pfft, that's B.S., they don't NEED my phone number, they WANT it so that they can sell it to people that will robocall, telemarket, and text spam me to death. No thanks. And I think they've posted warnings on that phone number page for years (and maybe still do) claiming that at some point you'll HAVE to put in your phone number in order to retain access to your account, but so far they haven't followed through on that threat. When or if they do... then I guess I just lose my accounts... because I'm NOT gonna give them anymore than they already have.

Anyway, I don't know what the fuss is about. Looks to me like spam isn't a huge problem here. It's being taken care of. Is anyone gonna STOP coming here because of the very rare spam post they might come across? I doubt it. You gotta be a pretty tightly wound kinda guy to let it bug you THAT much. Life is good. Worry less.

[ijazz]

Gypsy,I dare you to track me and post my ip address,country and location.Send it through PM.

Bring.It.On.
