I don't believe there is any way you can prove to me that Gandalf/Norfleet/Zen/Annette/... and myself are not the only two people in the forum.
Really pushing on the existential thing huh?
Remember: on Internet never believe anyone who says they are XXXXXX
and never believe anyone who says they are not XXXXXX.
(replace xxxxx with your choice of old, young, male, female,
married, unmarried, law, hacker, mortal, god)
Actually it all boils down to "root" (windows people say "administrator"). Anyone with root access can do alot of tracing, and slamming. Its part of what keeps the internet alive and running. now if you think that maybe Norflet is the person who ACTUALLY put up this box so that he can play all the parts and talk to himself... OK this is getting nuts.
