Darth my dear chap it just looks desperate to rush out and parody a recently released news item. What next, a forecast of what the next big news item will be from the competition.

I loved the one that took a stab at the US knowledge of geography. My wife (who is Australian) and I were sat in the Outback Steakhouse in Lousiana one night. Our waitress, a student at McNeese College, asked us where we were from. I said "Wales" and she looked at me blank. I said "United Kingdom" and she still looked at me blank. Finally I sighed and said "England" and got a response. My wife then said she was from Australia and the waitress exclaimed "Oh my god!!! Australia!!! Really??!!! And you DROVE all the way here???!!!"

Oh no, the IP trace kiddie is back!!
I used the name "Jan de Vries" once, because "Jan" is the most to be found first name and "De vries" the most to be found surname in the nethelands.

It seems to piss you quite straight off that someone actually spends this one mouse click to look up all posts you have ever done on ANN including cross-references and all the bells and whistles. I would say it's quite some fun from time to time to check out who actually hides behind all these anoymous nicks. Maybe it gives people a reason to reflect upon themselfes for once.

My advice to you is to try to grow up a bit and see all this from a distance, if that is still possible for you.

Now, next.

Someone does something good for the Amiga platform and WrongPla.net is sure enough right there to rip the piss.

Envy I reckon.

It was sarcasm m8. I deliberatly used that name as bait for the IP trace kiddies.

And finally I catched a fish. I know strange humour but nevertheless, very amusing. ;-)

Maybe i should try putting a picture online somewhere with the text: "Hobbies: I like to post on ANN.lu anonymously. You can find my post with IP: 212.206.177.237"

I'm sure they'll bite as well. ;-)

It is simply amazing how some people really want to find my identity to probably use it in yet another attempt to "Satire".

>kiddies.

In 2002 nobody really cared for looking up IP's and find out that this anonymous guy is knows as AC Milaan (football fan?), Amifan (Amiga fan? :-)) and Jan de Vries.

And finally I catched a fish. I know strange humour but nevertheless, very amusing. ;-)

IIRC Mike Bouma already did a similar thing, no picture though.

I doubt you really would be a target for satire :-)

That's interesting. I do like soccer, but certainly not AC milan.

Amifan? Which one? The one that turned to the Pegasos ( he is dutch) or this german one (http://www.amifan.de/system_no.html) or yet another german one (http://www.junius-net.de/index2.html).

Or I could indeed be Jan de Vries.

Happy tracing and happy guesing.

TBH i think if people want to read wrongpla.net then they'll go to it, i don't see any reason why it should be posted here everytime a new "article" is posted.

In reply to Comment 24 (Turambar):
Two reasons

1)They try to make fun out of Amiga owners, but they'll have no fun if the people who they try to make fun of in their so called "satire" don't read their artikels. That's why they "advertise" on ann.
2) Those blue scumm like to make trouble in amiga forums.

Well Tryo,
They don't annoy me, they're giving me opportunities to show what a "lesser beings" they are really are.
And the whole trace thing shows how desperate those kiddies are with wanting to know who spoils their "phun" and makes a complete fool out of them.
