So, what happens if you have a subscription but live in two homes across the country from one another with different IP addresses?

Can you only post on the board from one terminal??

Chris, that shouldn't be a problem. Yes, they can log your IP address and see that you are writing from two locations. No, it shouldn't matter. Your login name and password is how they identify you. Most of us post from multiple machines anyway. It's only if they suspect abuse that they do further digging looking for anomalies. Multiple IP's from one person, no problem. Multiple names from the same IP raises some eyebrows, especially if those names are linked to harassing posts.

Is this the Magic Cafe forum? I'm looking for the Magic Cafe Forum. I'm interested in doing magic stuff. I have one of those plastic thumbs. Are you guys all magicians? Where am I? Am I in the wrong place? I typed in Magic Cafe and wound up here. What's going on? Somebody help me. I've fallen down the rabbit hole and I can't get up.
