Not only is it a case of player privacy protection, but I know there would be idiots putting "IP Address: *.*.*.*" in your profilevars, and other things which are accessed by other players. Basically, it's not hard to get a players IP with the new graal scripting engine, if you feel the need to find a player's IP, just use RC or requesthttp. Otherwise, if it's not an important enough reason to use requesthttp or RC, then it's probably something you don't need to know anyways.

Also:
Try using the search feature on the forums before requesting something, it's a good habbit to get in to.

Ill-advised; it's likely globals will request you remove any such requestURL/requestHTTP mechanism for finding IP addresses.

Use it once and remove it, that should not be a problem if you ask me.

Well, uh, what good would it do using it and just removing it, if as an admin you can already find the IP using RC?

You should not be using requestURL/requestHTTP to find the player's IP address, end of story. Simple as that.
