Could Associated Accounts be Neighbors?
-
Hi, I am familiar with the whole people getting associated with accounts that are not theirs and the whole IP address rotating thing. Just got curious and looked at my associated account list and found 4 accounts that are not mine. Could these other account possibly be people near either where I live at home or college? I make friends from all over the world here, just got me curious, or do IP addresses get rotated widely enough that there really isn't clue? I hope this doesn't sound weird. haha

@FriesianPaints and I are associated and to my knowledge we are not neighbors.
From the explanation I got, many of the big Internet providers use the same IP addresses it seems.ID# 24891

My understanding is IP addresses are rotated over wide areas for the big providers. However, if you have ever played off your college campus WiFi, it’s also entirely possible that some other player has also at some point hooked into that WiFi either as a student, faculty or staff member or a visitor. I seem to collect at least one new “associate” every time I take a big international trip because I will hook into lots of public WiFi spots on those!Thanked by 1Wildland Acres

I bet you did!
We will be all over Europe while there, so I'm guessing I'll be picking up quite a few. Lol
Maybe we will be associated now, CSW. LOL! -
That is so funny, CWS. You're actually one of my associated accounts and I have never been to England. I like some British television though, maybe that counts? LOL
