1. Do you mean someone here at DU?
You should be able to either hit Alert, or send an email to the admins. If it's somewhere else, you need to do the equivalent at that website/blog/chatroom.

Edited on Mon Mar-29-04 03:50 AM by imax2268
I found out what it was...a guy in Canada who is a conservative wrote a nice little piece on his blog about me and someone found it and posted it at another web boards that I am a member at...the article mentions how I blasted Ann Coulter because I didn't like her...So I shared the response I got here at DU and some posts that other DUer's made were in this article...

so today this little coward/Half a man posted it on another website, this person has a history of using multiple usernames to start shit with people...so I wanted to know if I could find out exactly who this person is...

But the boards do not have a way to do that...and they don't list IP addresses anymore...

but thanks for the help...
