So, yesterday, I am reading one of my threads, only to discover that people have come to think we are all the person. Well, people I can assure that we are not the same person, in any way, shape or form.
I am curious however, why did people think of this? Who else does everyone think everyone ese is?
That is, if you think two people are the same, this will be the official thread to say it.

I think the original thread I posted this in got deleted because I can't find it. My apologies if someone already answered.
My newbie-ish question: Because our IP addresses are logged, isn't it easy to tell if people are (or are not) the same person?

Really? I have the feeling I am being tricked right now. IF YOU ARE, then you are the master of disguise.

That's just what I'd expect an Australian to say. Here's proof:

Of course underground Australian resistance movements would form. Beer would be drunk. I'm not sure what else would happen, but beer would most assuredly be drunk.
I guess it would be good for improving the US's swimming medals at the Summer Games though. (;p)

Canada is bad. They are too fair and good, and kind, and referred to as the upper US. I like Canadia.

This is a riddle, right? I think the answer is "one of them isn't a quarter, but the other one is."

I hesitate to bother posting in this thread, since it's only a matter of time until it's deleted, but my answer to your question in the other thread was "not necessarily". If Advent and Reticulum are both students at the same middle school, and the school's network is set up so that it uses a proxy server, both of them would show up in Hatrack's logs as having the same IP address--the proxy server's external address.
Alternatively, if a person were careful to, say, post under persona A from the library and persona B from home, there would be different IP addresses for both identities.

Liar! Everyone knows that I am Tom Davidson.
Of course, that means I am also AJ and kat, but I'm still in the process of assimilating those personalities.
