Body found at Hampshire bus station

AN INVESTIGATION is under way after a man was found dead at a bus station.

The body was discovered around 11.30pm last night at Gosport Bus Station.

The man was pronounced dead at the scene following the arrival of paramedics who were unable to do anything to help him.

The area was cordoned off by police until around 5am this morning.

Services and ticket sales at the station are said to be as normal this morning.

Stentch? Do you mean stench? Personnally I like the smell of fish. What has that got to do with the story, I am obviously missing something.

I thought Denzil would be the first contributor to this kind of story. Death seems to get him very excited.

Loads of comments to the tune of "these other comments aren't relevant to the story". Don't you plebs understand that those comments aren't relevant either?

And, no, neither is this one. I'm not here championing the glories of relevance, though

It is very harsh commenting on the passing of this poor soul without knowing the full facts.

Will the bus company conduct a proper service in his memory?

Their name and location never changes. They obviously created an account with the echo so they don't have to type in a name and location every time they post a comment (see the link at the bottom of the page).

Plus (apart from them logging in from a different location each time they visit the site) how is blocking a mac address not viable or reliable?

Whilst it may have been a joke, an old and cr-p one at that, it gets lost in the use of double negatives.

That, or they - like I - use the "form completion" feature of their web browser to remember their name. Do you have an account?

Why is mac filtering not viable? Well, aside from the fact that mac addresses can quite easily be spoofed at source, they're susceptible to the same tricks as IP addresses. It's not hard to use an anonymous proxy, in another country (there are millions of 'em) so the IP logs become worthless in that respect. For example, if you were to trace my IP address when I'm at home, you'd probably find out that I was posting from somewhere halfway around the world. I'm not, but that's what the logs would tell you. The logs will show the IP address and the MAC address of where the request last came from, which is not necessarily where it originated. Similarly, I'm at work at the moment, so the IP and MAC address being logged is that of our HTTP proxy, not my machine. It's a pain, really.

The only thing that can be done is, force people to sign up for an account, and pay for it by credit/debit. That would limit how many accounts they could have, and when they're all blocked, they have to go open a new bank account to get another one. Who's going to bother? But then, not too many people will want to put their card details into a website just to voice an opinion on some local news, and the cost of setting up the system is prohibitive for a local newspaper. It ain't gonna happen. We just have to live with trolls

Very true. But in blocking the connection (ie the dsl line) they are logging in with, they could at least stop them from posting messages. The mac address you are assigned by your ISP never changes and if they are logging in from work at least their boss can give them a good kicking for having them banned from the echo website :P

Fundamental misunderstanding of Internetworking, I think, Watchman. There isn't a direct connection between your PC and the website you're browsing. You can't look at IP logs, or even examine incoming raw packets, and establish where they're coming from. The best you can do is see where the last proxy the request went through was, approach the owner and ask for the incoming logs. They're not obliged to comply, and in the case of anonymous proxies, they'll generally be in countries where the UK has no jurisdiction, run by organisations that won't give a hoot about your problem and will stand in your way just for the fun of it. That's what they're there for: to keep you anonymous on the Internet

No but you can use beans to return information about the users session which includes their public ip and mac address then return that information to the server.

whilst I appreciate that my comment will have nothing to do with this article and the 'Blog Police' will probably complain, I have to ask: Did you mean to have a double negative in the punch line? If so, that makes absolutely no sense
Its a joke, not a real life story. Why did the skelton not attend the dance? he didnt have no-body to go with. HTH
FFS you retard, it's: why didn't the skelEton go to the dance? Because he didn't have ANYbody to go with. If you're going to tell jokes, f**king get them right or you lose the point
You must be a very lonely person.

Also you are probably bald.
So what? I'm bald, and I've got loads and loads of money and I've shagged loads more birds than you
I thought Yul Brynner was dead so he couldn't have gone to the dance either. As for shagging lots of birds... in his dreams maybe.

Bald and small people have nothing better to do than pick up on other peoples mistakes, they are striving for perfection in a hairless world.

You have only slept with more "birds" as you have a bigger family than me, millbrook scum.

So the real reason the skeleton couldn't go to the dance was actually "because he's dead"?

No soap, radio?

Fundamental misunderstanding of Internetworking, I think, Watchman. There isn't a direct connection between your PC and the website you're browsing. You can't look at IP logs, or even examine incoming raw packets, and establish where they're coming from. The best you can do is see where the last proxy the request went through was, approach the owner and ask for the incoming logs. They're not obliged to comply, and in the case of anonymous proxies, they'll generally be in countries where the UK has no jurisdiction, run by organisations that won't give a hoot about your problem and will stand in your way just for the fun of it. That's what they're there for: to keep you anonymous on the Internet
No but you can use beans to return information about the users session which includes their public ip and mac address then return that information to the server.
Erm, no you can't. Trust me, there's no reliable way to do it

Beans? J2EE developer, are we?
Developer period. There are methods of doing this in asp, php, coldfusion, java, perl, you name it!

what do you develop in then?

Oh dear oh dear oh dear! Despite labelling yourself as "Jokemaster", it appears you've had a complete sense-of-humour-otom
y (or ectomy, whichever's funnier. I forget which is which). Here you are, picking fights with someone who's picking holes in your own attempts at being funny, and then picking fights with anyone else who has their own attempts at being funny.

It's a joke, numpty. Yul Brynner hasn't really come back from the dead to have a pop at you.

Jokemaster my arse. You're fired

It can still be spoofed, quite easily. Seriously, it can. HTTP sessions as you see them might very well contain the real addresses, because why would you want to fool something you're trying to buy from? But if you want to be anonymous on the Internet, it's always possible. Always

Me? I'm currently all caught up in the POJO revolution, but I was a 'C' hacker for years

Wiggly poo, ISOSM, BOMBD, FUKD, ESPN, Puff Pastry Hangman, Custard Ganit, Quadra Spazzed on a life glug, Cake, Jessop Jessop, Clarky Car, the horse.

Just to name a few, wibble.

Cool. I totally agree that the address can be spoofed I just don't think they are capable of it :P

Still this was a good way of avoiding fixing legacy systems for an afternoon :D

Poor poor denzil. Don't you realise that nerds rule the world and probably pay your wages in some way or another?
Do you think that the computer you are using right now was developed by someone who isn't a nerd?

FAO George, nerds may rule the world, but a nerd is a nerd.
