If people have a modem or some other sort of personal internet connection the ip address changes as soon as they turn the power off...in the event of a blackout or power outage they would not be able to access their accounts anymore...
I like the way you think but it wouldn't work, sorry

Wrong, only dynamic IPs change.

It's usually the victim's fault for being hacked. Any offsite links offering free robux/tix is a way hackers gets pa-ss-words. Either that or they hear it from someone else you told your pa-ss-word to.
But, for more security this idea would be okay. |

I don't even remember my IP address. I changed my motherboard a while back so it changed..
I should figure that out :|

I only just realized what you said. You do know that most ISPs use DHCP and thus this is not really an issue since they offer dynamic IPs? And even when, you can still change a static IP, you just need to call your ISP and have their technical support change it for you.

That's different. You cannot turn your modem/router off and get a new IP if it is a static IP.

| It is useful. Very useful. But it exposes the ability to get on accounts at a public place. |

But you can still change it. That's my whole entire point. Of course, DHCP make it easier, but static doesn't make it impossible.

| If somebody is deliberately trying to steal your account, they could log in with your IP address. I've dont some expirementing with ROBLOX/IP Hacking in the past. You'd be surprised how easy it is to do. I never stole an account, however. |
