Do *not* worry about somebody spitting back the IP of your posts. It doesn't mean a thing, because it's *not* really your IP (unless you're using a server as your main PC *and* you've got it out in the DMZ without a firewall...something that *no one* with a server would be stupid enough to do).

All they're getting is the proxy address of your ISP. There are probably hundreds of people who are showing the same IP to the world. Their real IP addresses are known only by the ISP. That's how the ISP's keep their network and users relatively safe. Getting an IP from a board would NOT allow anyone (other than, perhaps, a network operations manager of YOUR ISP) to trace it back to you. You've done absolutely nothing to warrant that type of scrutiny.

Anyway, complain to your local AG's office about the continued harassment for a discharged debt. It is a violation of the court order to do so, and the consequences are quite stiff. And you might want to contact one of the naca.net attorneys to see if they're willing to take your case on contingency. :-) May get a few bucks out of it.
