I think when we did have it, IP addresses were visible and things did bleed into threads.
The first, I think that we can fix and then second....well, that's Getbig. The way I see it is that the crap in threads should bleed into the Thunderdome and not the other way around.
If there is any interest, hook me up with the "tech guy" and I will help out. I will even use my real name (with him), so he can check and see that I am on the up and up.
