Why exactly do you want to do this? *goes to post illegal stuff on your forum*
I just don't want to log other people's IPs. And we haven't had any spam (yet) so I don't see a need for it.

If you want it or not, the ip''s are logged at the database. Personally I don''t think it is wise to not log them at your forum, for various reasons.
Why is that?
I've never been in a car accident. If I had never worn a seatbelt in my life, I would still be here. You do it in CASE of problems.
What problems? Can you explain?
There is some merit for not logging IP addresses. If you don't log the IP addresses, you can't turn them over to law enforcement Wink
Oh. I see.
How do you stop admin's IPs from being logged?
