if someone decides to go to the extreme of ripping this forum off or trying to mess with it somehow, like it has been in the past, they will have their ip posted.
we wont be reporting them to the police, despite them committing an illegal act (tampering with a forum/website that does not belong to them), so we will post their ip.
it is a risk they are going to have to ask themselves if they are willing to take.
besides, members can find out other members ip address is they REALLY want to. its not like your bank access number, its not a secret no one knows unless you tell them.

Then call him, nobody is stopping you.
Posting their address and phone number goes too far, I think. However, I won't think twice about posting the person's IP if what they did warrants it.

yes, the only time posting someones address/phone number is valid and called for is if you are reporting them to the policy for hacking a website. and this should only be viewed by the police.
posting info like that on a forum just to retaliate to someone stealing an item is border line obssessive when it comes to revenge.

I'd say logging someones IP address is fine. But as for logging their email address / telephone no / Home address. Thats ILLEGAL, unless they consent, of course.
Not to be a stick in the mud - but the mods could get in serious shit for that kinda thing...

posting someones email is not illegal. address/phone number, possibly. if anything, you could get sued for that.

if u really know what you are doing, u can find someone's address from their ip...or at least u can find the general location of the computer they are logging in on.

well, the list has been created, as you can see in the news and events forum. it will remain locked, and if you have any info on the people listed, that isnt posted, you can PM a mod letting them know it.
it is still in the works, as i have to sift through countless threads finding that 1 post the person made stating their bnet account, or aim sn, or reason they were banned.
