Why aren't moderators doing more to expose fake diaries?
IP Address is tracked on each login and post, I've never seen a moderator expose a fake diary or anything when there has definitely been many, it's always up to us ourselves to find out whether a post is legitimate or not.
Can any moderator shed light on this? If I have to do it myself then make me the moderator, I'll do it.
If IP address isn't enough to track fakes then I'm sure this website can request more info through cookies etc.

Mods can't see IP addresses. That wasn't given to us as a feature by the site admin.
-
Where is the site owner I want him to come back
-
There's no way of knowing if someone from a given IP address is really getting LL or not. If we demanded photos, personal information, medical documentation, etc. in order to allow diaries, but most people wouldn't post at all. LLers value anonymity.

Good point

What are some recent fake diaries? Are they working for the doctor who did their “surgery “?

Nobody has proof as far as I know, just suspicion and accusations.
Show me proof and I'll absolutely delete the diary and ban the user.

He was worried power would corrupt him like it did every other past LL forum owner. He was a cool poster but I'm glad he did it for the sake of the forum.
He's never coming back except to occasionally do something only he can do for the site.

Same ghost writer
Tone identical, same doc
"I'm not in pain, I'm not taking painkillers, I'm not in pain"

I left only one comment on emirasaf diary saying ghost writer and then the alt accounts start responding 😂 http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=66159.msg190835#msg190835

Damn you are right. That looks suspicious.
One way of filtering would be checking multiple accounts posting from the same IP, or IP range.
Then they would need to get a VPN or move a lot.

You must have someway of contacting the admin, even if he replies late, it's something that should have been brought up a long time ago. Enabling moderators to see an IP Address wouldn't be a difficult thing to do nor would it be difficult to have better security to authenticate users. I'm not saying add finger printer logins or anything but a simple location tracking feature which 99% of websites do anyways wouldn't be excessive.
This entire forum is flooded with fakes and occasional spam, the moderators doing nothing about it is not a good look for the website or the 'community'.
Sorry to be a Karen but this is about people's lives and doing these simple things would be the difference between someone becoming paralysed or losing tens of thousand and having a successful surgery.

Of course there's no way of knowing whether they're doing LL or not but if IP Addresses match between different users then it would be an obvious fake. That was my point. Anonymity isn't the issue.

Yes most of the time it's someone in the Dr's team making fake diaries to gain trust etc

Yeah that does look pretty suspicious, and an IP match would be the nail in the coffin.
Point well taken. I'll see what I can do.

Any update on this?
-
Nope. :'(
-
Any way to check device bound logins? That would give similar informations to ip bound.
Btw who is the admin of this site?
