Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt only to have it ripped apart by an angry lynch mob.

To clarify what Eiwe is saying. Is that we think IPs should be made public as well. But last time when we did that, everyone flipped out and thought that their IPs should be private. sooo this is what you have. If the majority changes and wants public IPs then we'll do it.

Shall we have a poll in general discussion? If we get enough response to this thread then we'll do the poll.

GREAT IDEA, ANNESTA!!!!

I VOTE YES!!!!

Go for it. Only those with something to hide will be against it.

I'm for it. Even before I was an Admin and able to see the IP's anyways I was for it. Most boards show IP's as it is and only people who either a) don't know what the fuck they are talking about, b) have something to hide or c) are just looking for something to complain about in the first place will bitch.

i'm for it

the half ip idea is really good too

EXACTLY!!!!!!

So I say go for it!

I think the poll in GD would be a good idea that way people would be informed & we can see what they REALLY think! (I'd even be curious to see what some troll-creators would say!!

)

The same can be said about many invasive laws.

I'm still against the idea personally.
If you choose to show IPs then don't show the final octet.

Really the only people with a need to know are the admins, and they can make public whether a troll is from an already existing IP if they choose to.

if you feel insecure then proxy

there is no need to show the entire ip tho...

If we do it, the whole purpose behind it would be to cut down on the amount of trolls. In order to determine whether someone is a troll (i.e using the same IP) the final octet would be essential.

So, instead we would conceal the first octet. The IP addresses would show up as xxx.168.2.53

We still haven't decided to do it or not yet.

That works too. Really all it's going to do is make people smarter in their trolling though.
