Wow, just went and saw that. Absolutely amazing. Visible IP's and Mike Farrell as the head analyst. Got a winner of a site there...

People can pinpoint your house just by your IP address.

I think the issue was people were only seeing there own IP... like one of those sigs that people use like a sniffer and thought others could see it.

There is a long thread over there right now. People pointing out where other posters live by seeing their IP address. That site is a dumpster fire.

I know that's just unbeleivable. Now those guys can just get other posters personal info easily. It's going to get real ugly over there.

No I could see everyones that posted in that time frame. I think they were trying to fix the sig problem and ended up enabling everyone to be able to see everyone's IP that posted during that time.

Did I just read that Farrell is the lead analyst now. If so that is bad since he is one of the biggest homers.

Yeah my guess is they were trying to fix the sigs and some how allowed IP's to be displayed.

I doubt it gets shut down any time soon if at all.. they are owned by Yahoo correct? as long as they have advertisers they probably don't care how many people post.

Yeah yahoo bought them a few years back, and lucky and Noah started this site a couple of years later.

No website in the Yahoo! network is coded very well IMO. Their web designer/web design team needs a massive overhaul.

I can't wait until that site goes under
Sadly only us die hard core nerds understand how bad it is for this business
Not enough care about the day to day in recruiting so their failures go unnoticed to many

Yahoo considers itself more of a media company than a technological company, and it shows. And it's why Google has been wiping the floor with them.

Yeah Yahoo read the future of the internet all wrong several years ago. Got rid of most of their programmers, put very limited emphasis on programming etc. They are basically just a place to check email and read the news now. And Google even does email better!
