I'm going to take a guess and say no. I would think the highest ups here do, but they're not here to harm you

Yeh, I don't think the admins would use my IP maliciously, but not really looking for a guess
Evidence suggests someone got the IP I was using from this site and used it to attack me, so I want to see what I can rule out.

Nah, it's a dynamic IP that requires manual reset to change. I'm using VPN now tho.
Shroomery should protect user private data better imo.
I personally don't have anything to hide from like say the DEA, but some noobs might.

Every site you visit logs that info and its visible to anyone that administrates those sites. It's not really private info. Still though we would be shitcanned for disclosing it

Yeah, and administer is not = mod.
What good reason would you ever need to see the IP I'm using to perform the task of a moderator?

Still just people lol.
Anyone here not even a mod could embed a picture they hosted and view the logs and get your IP anyway
Of course its just a tool to combat puppets and trolls.

They would get an IP, but they wouldn't know whose IP.
A DEA mole could get mod here and have access to all user IP info, since entrapment isn't a thing anymore, they could even coax noobs to tell on themselves.

Lol then hide under a rock.
I could send you a PM with a 1x1 pixel image hidden in it. Just to you. And with that I could get your user agent string and IP. All you would have to do is open the PM.

It still isn't equivalent. Because then I would know exactly who did it and the IP of the host. Sure, give me your server info to try and hack a library PC!

Well I suppose it's time to wait for ythan to reply with something far more eloquent than what I had to say.

What specifically did they do? How did they attack you?

No mod here is that savvy that also would have the time to care about doing that to you.

I'll let you know if I find anything more sophisticated in the logs.
Pointing something like a LOIC at an IP doesn't require much savvy.

Id bet you don't have hardware old enough to be susceptible to LOIC. Afaik a decade ago modems and routers had software that cockblocked that shit

Well, thanks for your opinion.
The point of this post is ask Ythan to protect user IP data. Is it necessary that you see my IP to perform tasks of a mod?
That's all, if you think I got hacked or not, it's not my concern.
If you want to talk about how to rent a Mirai or IOT Botnet that has a GUI interface from the Darkweb for a few dollars in bitcoins, we can discuss that in another thread.
You talk about spoofing an IP with 1x1 image then go on to say using botnet is savvy, so I dunno man.
(The LOIC was just an example of the simplification of use for botnets, if you missed it.)

A moderator can see your IP if they place you on suicide watch. There would be a log of that action and who performed it. You have never been placed on suicide watch.
Tracking via hidden image, like bodhisatta described, should not be possible on this site if you're using the option to "retrieve offsite resources through a web-based proxy" in your display preferences. This has been the default since we enabled global SSL back in 2015.
If IPs are leaking from the site somehow that's not by design but you haven't really given any indication why you believe that is the case.
