I mean knowing someone’s IP is (usually) pretty useless Wow, you know which city I live in Now to search every person in the city to find me
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
He can't he is trolling with random numbers and even if it is real he can't do anything with it like Cubicake said
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
They’re most likely trolling unless you can check that the ‘IPs’ are valid IPs that have been on your server
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
I mean he did find the ip of multiple staff members Its just a matter of security Who would play on a server where you know anyone could steal your ip I mean quite funny he told me that he will contact my internet provider and find my adress with that 🤣

you'd have to provide more detail than that

best thing I can tell you is to check whether you've exposed permissions Essentials has a /whois command I think which can dump user info, incl IP addr so check what plugins you have and that you haven't accidentally given out a permission

Also confirm with the staff that 1. It is actually their IPs 2. They didn’t do anything themselves to expose their public IPs, like clicking on links from the guy or joining a server he has perms in

IP is public information all websites you visit have it
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
that doesnt mean public information
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago

QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
it is not available to the public. its only available to the sites you actively choose to visit.
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
Have you verified that is actually an IP address of one of your staff(s)? Or have they just claimed it’s the IPs of your staff
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
It's nothing which could reveal your location just your city
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
you can take someones internet down with an ip that is not nothing
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Just call your isp to change your ip or wait for another ip address
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
also revealing a city is still very sensitive information. might not be to you, but you are not them
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
this. Where you go on the internet is by choice (to some degree), and therefore it is to your discretion where you go and who gets your IP. That’s why privacy policies exist, etc
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
It really isn't that big of a deal
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
Others may think otherwise
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Nobody is gonna find you
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
others DO think otherwise
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Anyways back to the question
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
Doesn’t matter. Someone having your IP and threatening to broadcast it or whatever just isn’t a nice feeling. You feel violated, your privacy invaded
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
If you are paranoid that someone will visit your house most people think IP = my address
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
I know it does not represent my exact address

"just call ur isp 4head" yeah bro what happens after the 10th time i've called my isp? u realize isps just dont have infinite ips they give out for free
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Call your isp and let them know or just wait for it to expire If you leaked your ip you did something wrong(grabify link)
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
or the server u played on got hacked
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
^ there’s a multitude of different ways someone could get your IP
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
which is why the OP is here. they are asking for help
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
But anyways everyone has different opinions
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Always play on servers which you know that their owners aren't dumb. it's really the owner's fault if they have leaked their console or gave console access to someone
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
there’s no guarantee with that
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
And it's your fault for not using vpn if you are paranoid that someone will come to my house
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
yeah until you get banned / blocked because of that VPN but anyways doesn’t matter
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
shit happens. have u not literally seen what happened yesterday? billions of pcs got bluescreened, shutting down a majority of airlines. its not a matter of "dont play on dumb servers" shit can and will always happen even to the best
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
It doesn't stop ban evading just annoy some people
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
man its ok to have a wrong take, you've clearly made up ur mind and think ip leaking means nothing. if this were true why are users getting banned in this discord for ip loggers? why are there privacy laws in basically every governement across the globe? like sure. u might not care. but dont choose that for other people. everyone can decide on their own lets stick to the topic of helping the owner find out and fix the issue instead of debating an invalid take
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
I have heard about that, yeah shit happens, they should have bug tested their application, but I don't know how it happened, what triggers crashes so I will wait for more information before talking about it IP leaking means something since as they said someone can ddos your wifi etc. but I don't think that you should be paranoid that someone will come to your house
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
I mean people aren’t just worried about location, like you said possible DDoSing which isn’t ideal and several ISPs don’t take kindly to that
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
both are very valid. if people want to come to your house. knowing ur rough location can very easily allieviate it. oh your name is john doe? oh theres millions of john does on the planet? oh now i have ur ip? oh theres only 400 john does in london? oh wow, only 30 of them are youger/middle aged, oh wow heres is address. nice
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
I mean I doubt the guy op is talking bout even has the capability to ddos
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
If they want to ddos you they are stupid since they don't get anything from it and they lose money
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
How would you go from name to address?
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
its just a security concern. which is VERY valid. they want to make sure they didnt fuck up and are accidentally leaking ips. its quite that simple. dont fight against that lmao. help them fix it
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
yea I get that if there is an issue, it should be fixed
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
shitloads of sites will do it for you for free. this just isnt a topic for this discord so im not going into any detail. but its very easy true, which is why ddosing a minecraft server or its players has never happened
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
I've looked into this before and couldn't find a single source for my address online tbf tho thats because I'm probably more cautious than a lot of ppl
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Which is why you shouldn't talk about your personal informations on the internet
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
Agreed. but guess what? we're talking about leaks of private information... fr lets get back on topic
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
People will not be able to find you with one piece of your personal information eg. You know that I live in New York, if you haven't leaked your name or something more sensitive it will be impossible to find you Back to the question: TLDR: 1. Verify that it's staff's ip, look into logs for when they connect 2. See which commands you gave to the staff maybe that's staff's alt account and they just did /whois 3. Don't give console to anybody 4. If it's staff's ip ask if they clicked on sketchy links
ProGamingDk
ProGamingDk7mo ago
some data breaches include addresses + ips
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
Cgnat :) lol
ProGamingDk
ProGamingDk7mo ago
meaning if you have access to those breaches, you could in theory (if the user hasnt had their ip changed), get a address doesnt matter? in this case it doesnt
Cubicake
Cubicake7mo ago
Sure they have an IP and an address, but they’d also need to get that IP correlated to my mc account or whatever before my IP changed
Hormon.exe

They told me personally that they got their ips That guy has no panel perms, its purely an in game exploit

They are trolling then Why do you believe everything your players say?

Well he got the ip somehow
Zeda

he just wants attention
QarthO

Stop arguing with him it’s pointless. How about you share your plugins list, some logs, etc.
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
You sure it's real check by checking logs?
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
He made crusalis have a 7 day downtime i think And that costed them several hundreds of dollars Might confuse him with someone else tho Ill do that when i get on
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
True he doesn't want to understand anything
QarthO
QarthO7mo ago
Ur the issue Zeda.
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
I am not he just won't check the logs if the ip is real and believes everything players say
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
Brother i did that Do you think an admin would tell me "he got my ip" Just for funzies
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Maybe that's his alt
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
It is not I know that for a fact
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Okay then admin is scared and didn't even check
Hormon.exe

Also he managed to get my ip ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I dont care about that ngl As i have dynamic ip

Yes

Axolotl spigot to be precise Should be

Use paper or pufferfish probably a bug in axolotl spigot

Just block Zeda, stop wasting ur time with him
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Bro i am trying to help him
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
I doubt that Axolotl spigot is pretty well known Not just some random fork Especially since its a paid fork Which in turn means that the devs there actually care Since they get paid
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Never heard of it and it has only 600 members on discord
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
600 members for a server.jar is good af
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
It's page is just a link to discord
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
+ its used by other big servers
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Paper has 10k+ members
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
If im not wrong gamster uses it, and it has 2k players daily Paper is just more well known Doesnt mean its better
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Nah paid forks are sketchy especially because you don't see the source code
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
Its the same as in server hosts Everyone has their opinion
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Never heard anyone uses it
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
I see that you are a server owner, can i take a look, out of curiosity

Going to program some stuff bye

Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
Alr..
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
Axolotlspigot is… alright. It’s performance is okay, but they falsely dmca’d another paid form (UniverseSpigot) who has much better performance. Also the devs are kind of assholes and afaik got banned from this discord. AS also used to cost 1.5k USD before they reduced it to $10 💀💀💀 kind of sad seeing as UniverseSpigot is 70usd
ProGamingDk
ProGamingDk7mo ago
Its a very scuffed fork tbh
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago

ProGamingDk
ProGamingDk7mo ago
Its 10 usd per, owner was banned from here for having a backdoor in previous jars
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
oh yeah and that
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
If that is true I wouldn't be really suprised if he put some backdoor to see the player's ips And that guy(who leaked ips) is his friend or just his alt
Skullians
Skullians7mo ago
Possibly, but we don’t know what the backdoor’s purpose was in general afaik anyways
Zaid
Zaid7mo ago
It's not Good luck finding specific location You cant
Hormon.exe
Hormon.exeOP7mo ago
i doubt that he has connection with the as owner, but i never knew it was a backdoor

Just ban the person from your server and move on only reason they're doing it is because they're getting a reaction Block em, ban em and they'll get bored
Lunaiskey
Lunaiskey7mo ago
in america your address is linked to your name and those records are public but only if the property is in your name tbh a person cant do much with an ip without more information about you like an ip can give you a rough idea what city they live in but thats about as exact as you are getting
Zeda
Zeda7mo ago
Reason why shouldn't give anyone on the internet your name and surname
Lunaiskey
Lunaiskey7mo ago
pretty much
Philipp
Philipp7mo ago
If it is serious just check logs what commands he used which might have access to show the IP
Torrent

Why is Zeda doing nothing in this thread but defending a bad take
Cooleg
Cooleg7mo ago
thats what zeda always has done hes like jenkins but in questions instead of general and way more consistent with bad takes
Eternal
Eternal7mo ago
man the cliffcraft experience anyway hormon if it's done via the console server.properties -> log-ips=false otherwise prepare to remove every plugin (or disable some features of) that offer ip logging that's a bad take. no one can compete with jenkins he's the bad take god
Lunaiskey
Lunaiskey7mo ago
the essentials seen and whois commands require extra perms to show ip
Torrent
Torrent7mo ago
At least Jenkins knows things, like about Linux and coding in general. Zeda just completely lacks knowledge on any topic and his comments are almost always the opposite of helpful
Eternal
Eternal7mo ago
hmm time to find out if that's true on my own
ProGamingDk
ProGamingDk7mo ago
so he would have console access, but not access to do any commands etc? that makes no sense
Eternal
Eternal7mo ago
honestly you can never know how it's done in geopols could be someone just sending the ips aswell but hey if they have console access then fuck yeah you gotta do that (or just get rid of whatever backdoor there is)

IP addresses are public. What is not public is who that IP belongs to Your IP on its own isn't private, it's completely public The identifying information is who that IP belongs to, not specifically what the IP is

yes which is whats being implied here

Give this a watch, pretty cool video fuck you :( Also this thread really is weird @Hormon.exe There's no way he can just "pull" IPs from a server, that's not how the protocol works. He either got the IPs from outside of Minecraft and he's lying, or there's a major vulnerability in one of your plugins It's probably the former
Eternal

Also the IP thing generally depends on where you live In Germany it's basically not a problem at all, even if you're doing cyber crime(not extreme ofc). ISPs aren't allowed to log DNS requests, intercept any traffic or log what IP is assigned to what customer for more than 7 days(this may just be FreeNet with the 7 day thing, but there's 100% a limit)
