Request: player.ip

This probably won't be added. It makes it too easy for server staff to reveal a player's IP address to others and possible related information about them.

Then again, if it was their intentions, they could get it anyways.

I think he means through an automated script though. One person revealing someone's IP address has to go through the hastle of /opening named person. But a simple player.chat = player.ip does not (Looped through every player, it looks like something as this is rather dangerious).

If someone's account gets hacked and they lose their items, it really shouldn't be the responcibility of the staff to return the items anyways. Players should be more secure with their data and almost 99% of account hacks have to do with unsafe internet usage.

It's accessible by staff because it helps to control bans. With being staff is a responsibility of protecting information about players.

If someone's IP information is leaked with the current system, that means there is a staff member responsible for it, not Cyberjoueurs. Adding an IP variable makes it too easy for people to be tracked automatically.
