I.P in Lobby Removal #484

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Should we hide I.ps in the lobby in a future version?

1. Do you really want people knowing where you live? ( I Don't) Particularly if 
we get more members issue of security ?

2. Takes up unnecessary space in the lobby menu ?

IP Addresses are like home addresses and are open to the public.  They have to 
be public or computers couldn't talk to each other.

They could be hidden, but they can easily be gotten in another manner.  As they 
are they can help identify specific servers in the list if there is duplication 
of server names (like with ping-timed-out servers).
