After saw a forumer talking about IP address. My mind came across that why not we would able to see every forumer IP address?

Why? We would able to see who is the one who using duplicate account, and quickly able to inform the MOD/Staff. Usually, it is hard to see people with duplicate account, we will usually suspect then only report, but result we won't know also.

What you guys think?


Anyway, why topic tag do not have 'Suggestion' ??

Because hackers can take advantage of the IPs. I can imagine malayneum's PC port being scanned 100x a day.

Unless the IP shows X.X.*.*

X = undisclosed
* = the IP

No to all of your suggestions.

Would you mind wearing your IC around your neck while walking around town? Or maybe a nametag with your address in bold? I don't think so.

I know also this 1. Just that maybe we see same IP, we can report to MOD easier mar.

My main suggestion is to help to ease MOD/Staff work. smile.gif

It'll raise too many false alarms. We have enough moderators to monitor suspected duplicates. Besides, we don't take action on it if there isn't a very strong reason to.
