Ip adresses can only be seen on the admin panel when one user is online, and normal users won't access the admin panel.

This is impossible, how could you hide your ip addresses. Ip addresses could used to ban a member (if you think he/ her is a hacker).

greenmanfree you have to look for their IP. A Hacker would just use a proxy to go around their IP ban.
