I agree with August.
Its more important to log their ip's with their last SESSION(last viewing of the board)because nobody logs in and out anymore(with cookies)
Because otherwise this is just a duplicate of the 'LAST POST' hack which I already have.
in other words, I already know when their last post was and what their ip address was for that post.
I NEED to know the date/time/ip of the last 10-15 times that they viewed the board but DIDNT post AND DIDNT login

Thinking more about this it occurred to me that on a fairly large board with thousands of user sessions per day, the size the IP log files might get huge if every new IP is captured and recorded.
Maybe in addition to capturing new unique IP's from each new session on the website (new sessions after old session time-outs in addition to new log-ins), it could maintain the last 10 or 15 IP's only, rather than all that were ever recorded. This would provide all of the value of IP capture since it is the more recent ones that are most relevant.
Furthermore, it would provide the last visit date for everybody regardless of whether they log out or not.
Is this doable? Thanks again!
