Well thanks to the stupidity of the click-bomber, I now know some info about him/her. I apparently offended him/her in my other AdSense thread, so he/she looked at my past threads, found a link to one of my sites, and click-bombed me. (I know which site because I have my ads channeled). The thing is, that site is lucky if it gets 15 visitors a day. So it's easy to track who has been there. I looked at my stats, and I had 1 visitor from DP just a little while ago, whose visit length was 30 minutes. Stats say they are from Reston, Virginia, IP address 172.141.228.62. Now how do I get my revenge?
I did that just before I found their IP address. I think I should probably wait until I get a reply, and then I can tell them the IP address. Otherwise I might get 2 different people responding to me.
Sounds like you are doin what you should be. As for getting revenge, I live somehwhat near Reston VA...so if you figure out his address, you can hire me to go over there and poop on his doorstep.
hehe sorry bout that...was just joking about the poop. Its midnight here, I guess im gettin a little silly..better get to bed soon.
Oh you had better be serious about the poop. Can't his IP address be somehow linked to his AdSense account (if he has one) and get him banned?
click bombing someone just because you disagree or had a hot discussion in a thread with that person is, err, wow, can't find words for that! doing it and getting caught is just stupid now maybe instead of taking revenge you should ask for apologies, would make the world more peaceful maybe? but the choice is yours and you have every right to report.
Anyway, the morale of these countless stories is: don't ever put your websites with AdSense in the public forum signatures, don't ever disclose the URLs of such sites, unless it's a site sale process.
lol freakin lamer..... if this would have happened to me i would have proly asked a dp admin the guy's username ahh and i probably would have payed someone to beat him up
i would say guys never share your adsense sites url to anyone and not keeping them in your signature as well.
I haven't been banned yet, and I don't think I will. I sent them an email just a few minutes after the clicks appeared, and it looked like they only payed me for 1 or 2 of the clicks anyways.
If they are registered here, admins can look up via IP, but I think you need more proof. 30 minute visit it suspicious, but you would need 100% proof I'm sure ;-) Try using AdLogger. It's free.
