Topic: How does accounts/I.P work?

Posted under General

This would never happen but...

If someone let me log into their account and their account got banned from something I did, who's I.P is banned, theirs or mine. I know the account its self gets banned but who's I.P?

Also, If I am logged into another persons account that was created in Texas and I live in Canada (I don't but) who's I.P shows up when I post things, theirs or mine?

Just wondering, believe me this is all hypothetical.

I would assume that if you got IP banned the IP you signed up from would be banned.

And I would assume that whatever IP you're logged in from at that time would show up when you posted.

Come to think of it, I don't think they can see the I.P of WHO is logged in, only the I.P of the created account because what if multiple people are logged into one account.

Remember, I'm awesome.
We can pull the ip from whatever you do.

I've never, ever seen an IP logging system that only shows you the IP address used to create the account. That would be foolish beyond belief.

Unless the system was designed by a retarded monkey, the IP address associated with each logged action is logged. So let's say that Alice and Bob are both logged into the same account (let's call it xXxXx) from different places. Alice is logged in from 10.72.234.17 and Bob is logged in from 172.16.183.61. Alice makes a useful post, and Bob makes a douchebaggy trolling post. Here's what the mods would see:

xXxXx <timestamp> Hey guys, here's some useful information. I'm a helpful user!
[10.72.234.17]

xXxXx <timestamp> YOU ARE ALL FAGGOTS
[172.16.183.61]

The account gets banned, and if they decide the behavior warrants an IP ban as well they'd ban 172.16.183.61.

Oh well that's funny, nobody seems to know about my 1st account. This is my second and we all know my 3rd, when I got in trouble, both accounts from this I.P got in trouble but not the one I created from my friends house a year ago... hmmmm...... (That's my good account)

Oh that's a real smart thing to say. Makes you seem kind of suspicious, no?

We know about all your accounts. Don't try to be clever.

What!? You know about my 1st account too!? But the I.P was from a whole nother house :(

Regardless, I have only positive reviews on that one so I'm good!

Did you set up a system where IPs are only ever logged at account creation?

It's probably safest to assume that, when it comes to e621, the administrators and moderators not only know that you have skeletons in your closet, but how many you have, where the closets are, which skeletons have come out of the closet, and why that one skeleton is wearing a tuxedo with a tutu.
