Flash chatroom ban

Post by Rumpelstiltskin »

So When a chatroom uses flash technology it seems using an http proxy like Hide My Ass does not help.
I have Used a proxy, used diff personal information, used anonymous mode in firefox and somehow the chat still detects it is me.
Is it possible the flash is detecting my real ip despite the proxy?How would one go about circumventing this?

And I was banned for no reason, I mean it.
I know when i deserve it and id definately did not this time.
One of the mods there is just really really dumb banning anyone who has different opinions even if that person just calmly expresses them in a non inflamatory non spammy way...

So I visited http://www.meetcheap.com/ and watched the videos. Probably the best piece of software since Enviro-bear 2000.

So how do they manage to keep track of guests who are banned?

I have no idea.

Why are you even posting this stuff?
Yes, this is the off-topic subforum, but how is this question even appropriate for a bunch of RTS developers/contributors/groupies?

Well we all got banned some time. Even the mods limp from the hammerhits, when nobody looks.

Maybe they doesn't allow all proxy connections like spinrg server and he mistaken that as being tracked.

But then, it's not like he have unlimited people to ban, so he should run out of people to ban if he's ban spamming or end up with bunch of silent people.

I doubt the ban is worth circumventing if it involves a site built with Adobe flash

Try using Chrome/non-chrome, the different flash installs may have an impact

Go here:

Delete all sites.

Note this may delete saved data of various flash apps like online games, etc. If you don't want that, find the specific site.
