Add a new chat nickname
Although there is no permanent way to register and prevent others from using your
nickname on Chat Room 501, there is a way for you to verify that you are really
talking to your friends when they are online.
To find out your IP address, simply log into the chat room, left click on your name, and left
click on the "User Info" button. A report will then appear that looks like this:
[PRIVATE FROM SYSTEM] User BigMouth connected from 135.197.47.xxx on
- #Lawrenceburg, idle for 25 sec. Info: [] from
- http://www.lawrenceburg.com/chat/ STANDARD USER.
Compare that IP address (eg. 135.197.47.xxx) against the one listed on the Registered
Nickname Report. If they match, chances are good that they are legit. If they do not match,
then the person may be a fraud.
We are still testing these procedures and the database, so be aware that this project is
still in development.
