Let me say this loud and clear ....

I AM NOT AGAINST THIS IDEA , I DO NOT THINK THOSE THAT DO IT ARE FOOLISH , I HAVE A LIFE AWAY FROM HERE I VALUE AND PROTECT ! I AM OVER THINKING IT IS JUST POPULARITY THING !

I would however like someone to explain SSL encryption and how it will be of help . I am not computer teki and am not familiar with such things . Up till recently my IP\ISP was fully untraceable , it may be again very soon , but not now . Was nice being able to have free internet no restrictions and no ties to home in any way shape or form . So this kinda has my curiosity piqued now . Oh my god ....... I MAY CONSIDER DOING THIS !

Hey tripndicular, if you are concerned about your privacy, why not just send a money order (when the option is available)?

Fake return address and fake name on the MO (or just CASH), how are the cops going to track you down?

They aren't going to spend the time and resources to track you down just because you donated to this website, but I do understand why you are concerned.

After edu ma cating myself a bit more , I may consider it , but still would like to know how all the other bells and whistles will be of help to me .
Again I am not against supporting this site ... especially if they "ARE IN NEED" , but 90% of what I saw and heard was about neato banners and popularity contests ....
"I am more special than you because I have nifty banner that says so!"
I am some what corrected on that poor assumption on my behalf , bows head humbly to show respect ,and addmission of wrong thoughts in my sick little head  :wink: :evil:

But yes I know that MO option is a way to be protective of ones ident and financial life . That really had me bugged in the beinning , not now .

So now who has patience to explain all the SSL encryption stuff and how it is of benefit to me ?

EM... I get , is nice but not a selling point to me . :rolleyes:Plenty of that on the web for free . :blush:
Neat colored banner ... same not a selling point for me .
Access to "non baby sitter" (no offense meant to mods)controlled forums ... no selling point to me again .
I am not too worried about being hunted down like a dog(by THE MAN) , but was curious about all aspects of the offer by the site .
Thanx for being cool and trying to understand my approach . Is much appreciated  :thumbup: :cool:

SSL is an acronym for Secure Socket Layer.
It refers to an encrypted connection between your computer and the Shroomery server.
Provides anonymity.
Also, another feature is the option to turn off third party images, which is a way of tracking an IP, or alternately running them thru a cache server, which allows viewing with a moderate degree of privacy.

All well worth the 5 bucks a month,even if it didn't come with any other perks. :cool:

Do you get a personal key for use with the server? Otherwise, it's pointless. Also, I'm on a wireless connection, it would be fairly easy for someone to monitor my communications with the server, grab the key, and then voila, no encryption at all, effective immediately.

I support the shroomery with my time and knowledge. I've offered my programming expertise, it is on the table for if it is needed - and that is worth far more than $5 USD.

Who cares if people don't HAVE the money, just because you are successful enough to do so why should you assume EVERYONE is? The point is that people ARE buying supporter accounts, and so obviously, the shroomery is getting the support it needs. The system is working. I don't see the admins warning of an imminent server shut down due to lack of funds... If anything, things should get better now with all the money that will be coming in MONTHLY, which should cover most if not all of the hosting and bandwidth fees, depending on package (I have no real usage statistics so I am merely guesstimating).

I am unable to right now due to my money situation, I don't *need* an email address here - I have PLENTY of email addresses at my own websites. The SSL encryption is, to me, only a deterrent. The colors are annoying to me. I don't go in OTD, so why should I care about super OTD? Meh.

Every member of this community is important, monetary supporter or not. Everyone who contributes with thought out posts and helping in the various hunting, cultivating, and general questions forums are supporting this site - whether they give money or not.

Just my thoughts and feelings.

Your showing your support.  I do understand that helping others is a form of support, because that is what's so great about the site, people helping each other.  It's not free to run the site though, and I feel the admins should get some money for their services - running the site isn't all fun and games :grin:

I have learned so much from this site, it is well worth it.  Hey admins, just make a notice when the MO option is available :thumbup: :sun:

Though, if your financial situation is really bad, that is understandable.  As a member of this site, your not expected to buy an account, it's about support.

Thank you Randolph ...

Now for the next biggie ...
What good is SSL when we are 90% of the time making posts in the forums which is publicly viewed anyhows ?


I thought such things were only usefull when doing financial transactions . Big deal if my packet gets intercepted before it gets posted , it will still be viewable in the forum domain . Right ?

And does not the cache server keep and save all the info unencrypted ?
What good is that if shit got real ugly ?
Does'nt IP addy change for dial up folks ? Each time they connect ?

Like I mentioned earlier ... I am no teki some of it is foreign language to me .
I do miss my free net with no means of tracing me , I will soon have it back I hopes , then all that worry about IP would be no concern .


How you ask ?
A friend in the biz used to and soon will hook me back up thru backdoor of a server , who would have zipo nadd thing as far as account info on me or my connection ,it used to be if they traced me , they would get an addy of a closet in the next state . Was sweet !

Again thnx for the time and info you are giving me to understand this whole hubba baloo !

Access to the SSL connection is enabled thru Screenname and password.
So it's as safe as your account.
As far as your wireless connection....
i'd imagine there's a way to setup an encryption protocol between the router and your puter, altho i've never really looked into it, as i'm more of a direct connection kinda guy.

TnD:
Well, the thing is, is taht the data transfer from your computer to the shroomery servers almost garunteedly passes thru other servers/routers.
The SSL connection adn encryption involved prevents that data from being viewed en route.  Also, it anonymizes IP connections to the Shroomery, which is VERY nice.
As far as the the cache server.....
it's been hypothesized that a data gathering entity (such as LEA's) could create a screenname, and have one of the images in that screenname hosted in their router/server, and could trace all viewing of that image back to a localized time/poster. Which is not a pleasant thought.
The passing thru a cache server puts a step between us (users) and them (hosters) which impedes ip tracking thru that method.  Granted, if there were serious need to have that IP, a warrent could be served to the cache server, but it's still a level of privacy that's worth having.
Turning off third party images is the most secure route.

Don't look to me as an expert in this, as i'm not entirely clear on the technical specs, but that's how i understand it.  The cache server would be MUCH more secure if it were shroomery owned, but that's a whole 'nother story.

IP address does change each time for dialup users, but i'm fairly certain taht it will stay within a designated block of addresses allocated to each routing center.

Regarding Delta9's statements on support of the Shroomery:
The Supporter status is pretty much irrelevant.  The shroomery is financially self-sufficient thru the sponser program, and has been for some time (AFAIK) This is just something that the admins did to address the desire of MANY of the individual members to contribute financially to our Internet home.
They just didn't want to accept money without providing us some perks in return. :wink:

Bottom line, tho, is that this community cannot function without the blood, sweat, and time of all its members.  Support the Shroomery in the ways you have before.  Help the n00b cultivators.  Make quality posts.  Discuss, learn, and grow, and share what you know.  That's what we need, it's what we have, and it's the basis for everything we are.  If you can't contribute financially, don't let it irk you.  Just keep being good, contributing, caring members, and you'll be doing more than enough.

Thanx again RC you have been some real help in my feelings about the NEED for this .
I do think it is cool admin took approach to not just snag cash from folks with no return back to those who do it ... even if just neat concepts and warm fuzzy security blankets .

And as you so eloquently put it... the site is far from NEEDING cash to stay alive and happy . Vendors foot the biggest bill , and their customers (any mush hobbyist) pays them back in return . So we are still all gonna be one big happy dis FUN ctional family  :heart: :thumbup: :wink:


LONG LIVE THE SHROOMERY ! :thumbup: :cool: :heart: :stoned: :sun:

I wasn't implying that you lost your cool or said anything wrong. I just wanted to make it clear to anyone asking about Trip's support for the Shroomery that he is a definite asset to this website and to everything that it stands for. That is all.
