If i post something from my Droid on a forum could it be tracked to show

what state i am in, or my phone number?

I suppose if the forum had your IP address it could track your general location based off of your carrier tower locations, but in order to actually get your phone number or exact location, the request would have to go through Verizon, and this is most likely only possible in the case of investigations. I don't think that any normal person, or even forum administrators with access to the IP, could track you down.
