website.....fcc id?
« on: April 29, 2008, 02:03:28 PM »
wtf? last i checked im 99% sure websites dont have fcc id's, but maybe im wrong. A admin on another forum offered a free premium upgrade to whoever could locate the fcc id for the forums. maybe its not as literal as it sounds but it sounds like a trick question to me...

?

you mean the FCC as in the Federal Communication Commission?

I don't know of any type of regulatory IDs for websites, sounds weird.

'cause like the FCC require's ID's for devices - like my cellphone's ID is: BEJCG300.

but a website isn't a device - and for that matter, really doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of the FCC.

maybe they're talking about some sort of wireless server or something?

maybe he meant "IP" address, that kind of sounds like "ID".
and maybe he meant ICANN instead of FCC.

Welp i won the free upgrade. I told him thanks but that was the stupidest contest ever. I actually sent him a msg to ask where he came up with it. Apparently his friend is convinced that websites have FCC ID's and he figured if he made it a contest he would know for sure he was right before calling said friend an idiot. I told him to just use google next time or something.

Man that might be the stupidest thing on the internet.
