Banning IPs

We should be able to ban IPs WITHOUT having the person needing to post or be online. I think it's extremely stupid that you can't the IP of the person who was banned before making a post and then goes offline (and never being able to return)

You can also get the IP address of a member who has not posted by being logged in at the same time as the member.

um, what if the member is already banned, by username? That member won't be able to come online.

Jessica C,Its more or so related to this. You will get the IP on registration so you don't need the user to post or be online.

I've tried to ban IPs, but I can't, because the user is either online or never posted before. I support this, it wold be very useful if someone keeps making new, spam accounts.
Maybe there's already a way to find the IP though, if there is, I don't know about it.
