That statement was more senseless than the argument in this thread. People paranoid about other people knowing their IP clearly know nothing about computers. Plain and simple.

Cool, but you, and a few others, are totally missing the entire point to begin with.
People are not required to know the dangers, existant or not, of having your IP made public. Truthfully, the more careful they are with everything, the better off they are.
They have every right to be protective of anything that is considered personal information, which an IP is.
It's not an issue of how harmful an IP address could be, it's an issue that many people don't want their IPs broadcasted around an entire server due to script abuse.
And yes, they have that right, and it should be upheld.
