No forum moderators can't see your IP but admin can who are, Badbear and theymos. IMO admin dont mostly see your IP, I've only heard of them doing so in account hacking cases.

Well then you can either PM them or do your own research, I don't think admins are gonna rush to every topic that has "admin please" or something like that in it. Maybe moderators will, but I have no doubt it will be weeks before admins answer you.
Here PM them if you want, the moderators:

Forum moderators cannot see your IP, only administrators, Theymos, Badbear. etc. [1]
Last time I asked, theymos told me that they don't log IPs on login. I'm not sure if that has changed.

Also the hack a while back at least had some IP's.  I made a joke about who ever was getting on old accounts to impress me and they were able to give my IP....

Here it is - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1068623.msg11449839#msg11449839 .  I was on that IP a little bit as it was kinda static but has luckily changed(I got fiber and now my IP is luckily easier to flush).  I only reported to admin's/mod's when that was considered "new"

Are you even serious about what you are asking for ???
and the time you need for that is some decades when they retire from moderation and answer you .

I asked this because I got two accounts banned at the same time. I'm just wondering why my 2nd account which I logged on with the same IP on my 1st account(I believe it's banned because of signature spam) was also banned for unknown reason. A forum moderator banned them. Anyways I don't care anymore. My question was already answered. Please move this to trashcan, thanks.
