IP address owner takes the blame eh... Once that's out, every Boss/Owner/CEO whatever... is screwed.
Seve: I believe Wikipedia tracks contributors in two ways. One is by way of a formal registration, by which they get all your info and attach edits and changes you make to your account. Anonymous guests, though, I believe, are told that they can contribute editorially to the site, but are told up front that the changes will be linked to their IP address. I'm not an expert on the site by any means, but I have edited a few pages. It's been a while since I registered, but I believe that was the shpiel they gave me. As far as blog postings go: again I'm no expert, but I would guess that it would be significantly harder to go after somebody on an opinion-oriented site like a blog than it would Wikipedia, which has a stronger pretense of presenting factual information (as well as, I would guess, a substantially larger user base than a large majority of blogs). I think you're off the hook for all those nasty things you said about Scott Rolen. For now. I recently read an interesting perspective on people who tend to criticize Wikipedia for issues like this one. Now, where did I see that. Oh, yeah. Here.
Yeah, everybody knows Fuzzy drinks Jim Beam..... He should have just hired ReputationDefender to go to battle for him, they're probably alot cheaper (and alot less effective) than lawyers. I wonder what Fuzzy thought about the bit about his comments about Tiger?
I could be wrong, but I seem to remember Jay Mariotti get into squabble with Wikipedia over his page too. Me, I'm just glad I'm not famous (oh, the skeletons that can be found in my closet.)

You can do excessive women, but be circmspect about it and deal with ones that do not spill the beans afterwards. You will be ok because people will view you as too boring to bother with.
Oh, Sousepaw, you flatterer.
you flatterer. I promise to darken your doorway with unflattering responses complete with pro-Jeter rhetoric to disavow anyone of that particular notion, tout de suite.
'Scuse me; but, if DHCP the IP addresses are leased. Meaning everytime a computer is rebooted or after a certain amount of time they change. On your PC, go to START, then highlight RUN type in CMD, at the command prompt C: type in C:ipconfig /all -do an- C:ipconfig /release -then an- ipconfig /renew and you'll change your address. So it would be like someone playing putt putt golf and the KGB figuring who shot what with which particular putter handed to then at the check in desk (at least that would be my defense). BTW: Fuzzy doesn't drink Jack Daniels and it's percocets.
I don't think Fuzzy's nemesis will be hard to find, given the other edits he made on Wikipedia. How many hair metal fans could there be at one company? Zoeller got some bad advice on how to deal with this. The lawsuit was filed as "John Doe" to keep his name out of it, but that didn't work at all. He probably could have gotten the company to turn over the libeler's name by sending his lawyers after them prior to filing a suit.

Should I be embarassed to say that I'm going to a Vince Neil and Quiet Riot show next month? Yes. Yes, you should. As for Fuzzy, I expect he'll celebrate with fried chicken and watermelon all around if he wins. I should also add that he once threaten to punch me in the penis if I didn't hand over my Mr. Pibb.
Should I be embarassed to say that I'm going to a Vince Neil and Quiet Riot show next month? Yes. Yes, you should. No. No you shouldn't. But, if you were Vince Neil or Quiet Riot, that would be a different story altogether.
if DHCP the IP addresses are leased. Meaning everytime a computer is rebooted or after a certain amount of time they change. It's not like your router at home. Regardless of whether you have a static IP or not, the provider knows who owned an IP at a certain time. Theoretically.
I should also add that he once threaten to punch me in the penis if I didn't hand over my Mr. Pibb. Perhaps he felt he had dibs on the Pibb?
FWIW, go to wikipedia and change the entry and most wikipedia people will recognize this as edit war and the rest of the world won't care. Sue the living shit out of the person who wrote it and many more people will read what you didn't want them to read in the first place and will maybe even think "he must have something to hide." Not saying any of that is true about Fuzzy. Just saying if his goal was to stop the spread of these lies, there were quieter, more effective ways he could have done it.
