IP address
Sorry, I do not have the proper authority to find the IP address in which Metalingus is using. Pray tell, what are using this for again? M o e  ε  23:47, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

-- This is for an investigate report I'm compiling on Wind-Up Records Entertainment's street teamer Metalingus (in Ontario, Canada). I need more evidence to be accurate. It would help to have the IP address of this user to prove their geographic origin.


 * I don't think your going to be able to obtain the IP address of this user. M o e   ε  00:15, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

And why is that? Can you refer me to someone that may be able to help? Thank you.

I think I asked you a question, quit eating and answer please.

IP addresses and NPA
The IP addresses of logged in contributors are private, and are not revealed to anyone without good reason. I suggest reading the Wikimedia Foundation Privacy Policy. Further, personal attacks on other users are not tolerated; users who engage in them subject themselves to being blocked from further editing. Please be very careful not to attack other contributors to this site. Essjay Talk •  Contact 03:23, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

As far as I was concerned this wikipedian was not being responsible or curious about the reasons. Are you curious? And where did I attack anyone? I would consider apathy to be a form of attacking my request. So which is it?


 * Your comment above to Moe Epsilon borders on being an attack. As to the IP address, it doesn't matter why you want it, we don't give them out unless the user agrees or you have a subpoena. That is the way it is, no exceptions. Essjay  Talk •  Contact 05:50, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

You just said "As to the IP address, it doesn't matter why you want it" but before you said "The IP addresses of logged in contributors are private, and are not revealed to anyone without good reason."

I am not interested in talking with a person who contradicts themself, especially theologians who use Appeal to Authority logic rather than reason. If you can refer me to someone who would be more likely to consider my reasons that would be helpful. Thank You. - Peter

Blocked
Since you demonstrate no understanding of how Wikipedia operates, and have done nothing since you arrived but troll other users in search of private information that cannot and will not be released to you, you have been blocked indefinitely as an account designed for nothing but trolling. Any sockpuppets used to evade this block will be summarily blocked as well. Essjay Talk •  Contact 07:09, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
