This looks like you have been and still are tracking everybody. (For the un-technical google analytics is a website tracking service used to track user behaviour on a website.)

You ask why I have issues with a lot of people on this forum it is because I like catching people out that don't tell the truth.

You can't point out one instance where I haven't told the truth...to steal your line....PROVE IT!!

Now, can I prove your statement about the testimony on my site being a fake to be an outright lie and a 100% assumption?? You bet your ass I can....call Patricia Duckworth and Alan Bilsborough!! They've even allowed me to post their mobile number on this site!! Go ahead....call 'em 'weed.

And, I will state this once again, there is absolutely NO WAY to track visitors or visitors data on my site at this moment. What you posted above is html code....lol. What a bafoon.

Hi Beenthere done it seen it- have you the bottle to call these people, I am keen to know if it really is proof you are waiting for, or are you all wind and p**s? It seems to me that all you like to do to occupy your time is take a contrarian view of all statements made on this forum. For what purpose? Just to antagonise people? You must be a really sad person; I would love to wish you a happy Christmas but I guess the response would only be "Bah Humbug"!!!

It is actually javascript code buffoon. Google analytics does nothing but track users, so why is it in there if you aren't tracking users.

How come when I accused you many times in the past about being an agent you admitted that you were a developer but never an agent. Now suddenly you come out as an agent.

Hi Ralph

That is free software used for tracking reports, i use it myself at work. It is built into your html pages, I am not syaing you are a liar etc i think your web developer has prob set this up and maybe you are not aware of it.

Just thought i'd let you know as it is available to you.

Regards
Nick

So BeenThere, done it, know it all- you are a website specialist!!! Hooray- I run my business, have a website being rebuilt, and yes, Google Analytics, I understand from the web design company, are used to optimise your positioning in search engines. Other than that I have no clue about tracking etc. I am sure that would go for 99% or more of people, so obviously you have experience in that field, and I take my hat off to you. So what you are actually doing is calling people on this board liars and cheats and your mission is to expose the lies! What a crock of sh*t. Sad is nothing I think it is pathetic. You hide behind a name that tells it all. Many posters here do not hide behind anonymity like you, so who is more likely to tell the lies?

Because I am a developer beenthere. I'm one of the owners of MJR Developments. Did you see our rosegardens site? That is a 100% MJR Developments project.

Now, I have decided to begin to resell other properties here in the northeast of Brazil along with developing our own project.

I've just sent Bob an email. As I don't appreciate you coming into my thread, or any thread, and accusing me of putting up false or fraudulant information on my site or any site. I have spent the last 5 years fighting con-artists in the northeast of Brazil and I don't need some idiot like yourself who admittedly has had problems with every single person in this forum telling outright lies and disparaging my reputation.

I hope we understand one another.

Thanks for that Nick and I'm not aware of any of it. I'll be emailing my website developer right now and asking for an explanation.

Ask him to start trackin hits for you,
If he is managing your hosting he can track it easily for you and give you some monthly stats as an email through Urchin.

Nice site by the way.

thanks Nick. And here's the reply I've received from him concerning my e-mail.



Hi Ralph,


LOL no problem whatsoever. Such people do spring up once in a while and in this business, you meet all kinds. I would not characterize your assessment of that person's intellect and mental state to be inaccurate however, because I totally agree with you. ;-D (Not to worry too, there are a lot of such people online, paranoid and likely conspiracy theorists who are sure George W. Bush is on their phone line listening.)


Trying not to ramble too much, allow me to provide as much context and detail:


1. That code snippet is Google Analytics (formerly Urchin before purchased them), which is web analytics software made to accurately obtain statistics about the site. (It can be placed or removed easily without issue whatsoever; and was placed there as standard operating procedure as many of our clients request to have it included if they have an account or plan to have one in the future).


2. In a way, he isn't totally (technically) wrong, because analytics software's purpose is to gauge the performance, traffic and other metrics of a site. But where he gets it wrong is in making the mistaken assumption that this is malicious. His error is of correlation. It's as if he's telling someone not to invest in the stock market just because people lose money on it, which is true but not considering that it's based on mistaken logic, because many people obviously make money from it too and the correlation has no bearing.


3. Statistics/Analytics code in sites in no way mean to be intrusive or have any er, evil intention. Much in the way sites keep cookies (in that way even Amazon.com is more intrusive because if you logged in or purchased from them, when you return days, weeks or even months after, they still know who you are and happily greet you accordingly-- that's because they store a cookie in your computer/browser. But that obviously is for the good so you don't have to log-in every single time, and in no way means there's malicious code).


4. In this case, the code is to get traffic statistics in the same way your server already likely does via your CPanel using web server software like AWSTATS or Webalizer. The difference with Google Analytics (nee Urchin) is that it's more conservative with traffic stats and quoted by some to be far more accurate and better in giving you information about the site's traffic.


5. All they really need to do is look at the code itself, and see that it's from Google, and thus see its legitimacy. Now if they then argue that google itself cannot be trusted, well that's another story. ;-)


Best,


Nicholas

They said I have...well, here is what they copy and pasted for me..

<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "UA-198889-18";

Can you please explain what this is and also make a statement saying that i'm completely unaware of what this is or that is was there at this moment?

don't get me wrong..I want to keep it, so don't worry about having to do additonal work. I'm just having a debate with some idiot at the moment.

thanks,

Ralph
