yes it is legal.

ips and anything to do with them is legit and you can do it.

It would be legal, but if you somehow manage to get someone else's IP address; then you should not give it out to others. It would be exploitation of someone else's personal information.

trolling the less intelligent is harsh ;-;
Knowledge has nothing to do with intelligence.
And getting the IP address is absolutely legal, because your computer knows it when you connect to any kind of server or client, anyway.
As for location, it is not illegal.

I can't believe there are still people out there that think IP addresses are some super secret identification code.
Often, you won't even have the same IP for more than a few days, depending on your ISP.

I can't believe some people pay for VPN's just to hide their IP address.

Less informed? Is that better?

Yes. Less electronically literate.

I dont think that is necessary just perm ban them... unless they want to buy another block land key
You realize a lot of blocklanders have multiple keys, right?

I can't believe some people pay for VPN's just to hide their IP address.
The reason people buy VPNs isn't to hide their general location, it's that they don't want to be identifiable by their IP address. It's basic privacy, I use a fairly cheap (but good) VPN sometimes.

Thats what I said -_- " unless they want to buy another key"

if you don't want people on blockland to have your IP, uninstall blockland. by joining a server, the host has your IP. by using these forums, badspot has your IP. by using the internet, every site you have ever gone to has your IP.

Well badspot doesnt care about anyones ip there are probably thousands of ip addresses but i still think thats a little abusive that hosts log ip's and keep records of it. im pretty sure people can track through ip. the police track with ip  so im pretty sure ip's are exact...
