I would like this too....it's just the main reason for posting sites/screenshots is to get feedback.
I was just informed by a German guy who uses my plugin that the logging of IPs is illegal in Germany (unless a fault or illegal activity was detected). This doesn't pose a problem for me as I am not in Germany and not under their jurisdiction however as my plugin is used on German blogs I am currently making some of them liable to prosecution. Heads up for anyone else releasing code publicly:
You should store IP addresses with the 4th section missing (55.66.77.88 => 55.66.77.xx) and then geolocation and other lookups can be done with 01 substituted for the xx (will still get same results for country).
On occasions when you need to be able to distinguish between different IDs then they should be stored as a double MD5 (at least) as this will still let them be unique without storing the actual IP.
The above two methods cannot be used together (otherwise someone could just go through all 255 possible xx values to find the matching hash and voilla got the IP) - use which ever is appropriate for your project.

Tell me more please. Does one have to go out of their way too much to work with AJAX? or is it seamless?

Not waywo: it's spelled "its" not "it's". Sorry to be an annoyance but those spelling mistakes are the worst.

And what law should that be. It's not illegal. The Privacy protectors don't like to see it - however - from state to state different courts say different things. And most of them don't see an IP as "private data" as in Germany every provider uses dynamic ip's. Also, even if some states don't allow it, I wouldn't know one final decision where someone had to pay or go to jail.

why are you so against this? It's nice to just go down a series of links rather than go through pages and pages with perhaps 2 links per page + politics + the very occasional shitposting
