[Denied] Add an 'IP Audit' button to someones profile

I understand when you click someones name, you have the option to view their IP audit. But for users who have 'ZERO' post count, I haven't been able to find a way to conveniently pull up their audit unless i copy the URL into someone else's audit.

Example of what I mean:

For users with zero post count, you must copy this into an active persons ip audit.

A lot of ban evaders will only direct message someone on Sythe so they have no post count and you're unable to view their audit by clicking on their name (from my experience). Not sure if this is correlated but I think a simple 'IP audit' button somewhere on someones profile would be nice.

If i have presented my suggestion in a confusing way, please ask me to clarify whatever it is you don't understand.

Thank you for reading.

 

Don't see why this shouldn't be implemented. It's only good for sythe and its users that ban evaders get caught and purged.

 

Obviously a support, would be a great QoL update but probably won't happen until the XenForo update.
This is only positive, assuming it's easy to implement.

 

@Devil have you seen a users partial ip if they have no posts by using that trick you mentioned? We as staff have a easy one click check ip on any member so im sure it wouldnt be hard to implement but im not sure if a users ip is tagged to an account if they only send a DM. I know admins can see dms directly and see ips by checking the inbox, but not sure if it actually tags the ip to an account

I have caught several vaders with 0 post count as perhaps every time they Sythe Pm, it records the ip from which they sent that pm ? I'm not sure but I know people with 0 post count can have a long ip audit as I've witnessed it myself before. I'm not sure how staff went about viewing and handling the specific RABE reports in relation to this thread though.

 

If I’m not mistaken, about a year or so ago this was a feature ?

support btw, slay those ban evaders

Oh ok, i couldn't remember because our view to see ips is different. What your suggesting is something staff already has, so it should he fairly easy to implement i support

Do they? I can’t recall.

But yes profile posts aswell as private messages both add onto someone’s audit. This won’t make it easier to catch ban evaders but it could help yeah.

Kinda sad that every fucking suggestion seems to have to wait for the new Xenforo update though when we can’t even be certain things are different at that time. Adding onto that we were also promised User Center 7 in 2016 and look where that got us.

Another option staff has is seeing banned users striked through when you check a forum section. Regular members don’t so it’s probably ezpz to enable that aswell, but hey let’s all wait for the Xenforo update which is due to release after the coronavirus has killed us all.

Support, i noticed this too when checking profiles with 0 post count. Anything that makes it better to get those damn ban evaders is worth to add.

 

Apologies for my first - deleted - post. I support. Always helpful to add stuff like this, just makes it easier for those who enjoy cleaning up the forums.

 

Absolutely support. I run into this all the time where I have to go out of my way to look for someones audit. Would make it much easier.

 

[Fear]

Agree with this, nothing unique to add other than what people above have already mentioned. It is way too annoying to not see an ip audit on 0 post members. Support.

 

Support.

Sometimes I see new users and I don't find an option to IP Audit these users.

Really like this idea a lot.

Like @Pirate said I think this is as simple as enabling a mod perk for normal users, and I'm cool with that

There is not much benefit in being able to see the IP audit of someone with no posts or DMs.

It would also require a considerable amount of back-end work to be possible.
