I made this post largely because AOU has claimed I made 'False reports/statements'. This is a bold faced lie and is slander against me. The post in question that got me banned was https://poal.co/s/Poaldev/503577

Not a single thing I said was improper or false and I stand by everything I said. While the discussion may have stopped being productive and useful for the PoalDev sub, the ban is unwarranted and an insult to my honor. Some of you probably think I am being petty and I probably am... but men who take their honor seriously will insist on defending it when slighted.

My real transgression was daring to question AOU's code and he took this as an insult to his competency. His ego blinds him.

Or does the real reason I was banned have to do with the fact that he banned me the moment I mentioned 'The Algorithm'?

Things that make you go hum...

You do realize he is probably autistic?

yeah I do... which is why I try to help. Right now my big worry is that there really is a problem with how he is uniquely identifying visitors and that flaws with 'the algorithm' is actually banning innocent people. Before today I just assumed that was them just crying out as they srtuck you... now I wonder if some of those whining babies over at talk.lol were in fact justified in their butthurt

How does poal uniquely identify visitors?

well... I don't know for sure, but the bug that came up today regarding rate limit error messages, and AOU's response to that issue, indicates that it keys off of IP address and nothing else. The mere fact that some users see this is proof that some amount of traffic gets aggregated by ISPs via a NAT (this was AOU's assertion) ... and if this is the case then Poal servers see the traffic all coming from the same IP and can erroneously rate limit.

AOU and I were posting back and forth on this in a slightly adversarial way, but as soon as I said "hey if you use the same logic in the algorithm then it coudl throw false pasitives." BOOM ista-ban
