Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 27, 2020 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2020 Hey, welcome to the forum! Good question, it is an alphanumeric version of the IP address we created. We decided to do this because if you could see the IP of anyone that you connect to then this could be used for nefarious purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Then is this different for each person or if you are on a dedicated server two people can use the same ID? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ID will be unique for every IP address. Each person would appear as a different ID, just as each server would appear as a different ID. Two people could connect to the same server yes.
