 * I dont want my user’s posts to show their IP addresses to the world. I do want
   their email and possibly “screename” to be shown with their posts + comments.
   I thought I saw somewhere on one of the settings where there was a checkmark 
   for IP addresses to be shown. I cant find it now..

 * I saw an IP address of a poster. I guess it was because I was in admin mode and
   logged in as the admin? Thanks for the quick reply.
