No that won't be the case. It is possible to set up a connection via a proxy to fool the IP tracking system but this is completely different from the use of proxies by NTL which do not prevent accurate IP logging.

It would require a degree of effort on the part of someone trying to diguise themselves by setting up such a system though and the very use of a "strange" proxy that didn't link with the registered details for the poster would make discovery of this tactic very easy AFAIK.

Just because some have been able to register multiple accounts on boards like this dosen't mean the admins are not aware. LOL
