IP Address

Michal»»

A user's IP address is a unique number that identifies the user's computer on the internet.

It is used like an mailing address and since it is unique to the person using it, it can be used to block a user in cases where the IP address is static. An IP address looks like 65.27.184.43. If you allow posting anonymously, the IP address of the anonymous user will be shown in his or her posts.
