Everytime someone loads an image on the Nubblies server from a different webpage, the hits column increases by one while the pages column stays the same...so, when, in this instance, I see something like 0 pageviews and 1000+ hits from

it means that someone posted a pic from Nubblies in that forum.
From there, Detective Orgazmo simply looked at the log of the last few visitors to the site. Luckily, because of the heavy traffic on that forum (and thus the heavy traffic to that fellow's avatar), the majority of the past visitors were simply requesting that image. That allowed me to pinpoint exactly what image it was and gave me an exact url to one of the instaces it was posted.
After I fucked with it, he realized what had been done and changed the image. Because of that, I knew that he was the last person to view the image from that website as it was hosted on Nubblies...so, I went back to the recent visitors log and checked the IP of the last person to view the image from that website. I simply checked the IP with regards to the Nubblies users' registration IP's to see if he was a member.
Sure enough, he's our illustrious 594th member, Sharton. His contributions to the board have come in the form of 3 posts: One asking if you'd rather eat out your grandma or your mother, one proposing that 'liver scat' is the dirtiest word in the world, and one supporting the ninja affiliation (go figure).
At this point, I checked his ip to see where itw as coming from...to see if it was anyone that I knew (from warsaw or a local college)...simply because I'm a nosy bastard. It turns out he's from New Orleans. I liked that (that someone from New Orleans randomly (as far as I can tell)found the site...and started posting).
I realize this is a lot more information than you cared to know...but I like playing detective.

Very good work! And by god that was the best avatar ever to use at the time. The reason why I used it on the other forum was because we had this whole "asshole" theme starting on there. I felt that avatar was the best one I could have ever thought of(which I didn't think of) to use. I laughed so hard when I saw your "new" picture you had for me. I should have left it, just out of pure fun.
Now that I am so popular around here, I guess I should tell you all how I found this website. It wasn't as random as you think. A while back a friend(shigmy on this forum) showed me the post he created on here about who would win in a fight between pirates and ninjas(ninjas of course [img]graemlins/apepissright.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/pirate.gif[/img] ) and I thought it was such a good discussion I just had to throw my opinion in there. So there you have it.
