When players get banned their ip gets shown. So anyone can do whatever they want with it. Shouldn't it be hidden?

Vouch. Although IPs are a public thing, people still worry about it. This just makes it more easier for those who harm others to easily grab it and do things with it. Maybe make it so admins can only see it.

i don't see the point. ips are public, and easily found anyway. if you want peace of mind about not getting your ip shown, don't break the rules. simple as that.

This topic has been discussed multiple times.
Summary: Admins accept the risk of DDOS and DOX when they are accepted. Use a VPN if you don't want your IP Leaked IPs are public information and can be gained in many ways.

Still that extra protection works. This way its like yelling the ip to everyone. Again.. not everyone can afford a vpn

Happend to me a day or two ago i think Most people will do a simple GeoIP lookup and get the closest relative location to where that IP actually comes from, most of the time.

(Which is what I meant by relative location) I've never seen anything ever get it down to your exact address though.

I've suggested this many times, most admins vouched but no one was bothered to implement it. Then some admins don't give a shit about your safety and object.

Because it's not the end of the world if someone knows an IP. Like seriously, if you're afraid of that, then the internet might not be the place for you
