I work on several other bulletin boards as an admin or moderator. We track IP addresses there on everyone of them for a very good reason.
You would not believe all the spammers we get who try to fake their name, address, location and so on. Run the IP address and it usually will come up China, Russia, India and so on.
While you can spoof the IP address, most do not and it gives you a good idea who and where the post is coming from.
