[–] bdfh42 13y ago ↗ What?This is a social bookmarking site - do you mean you have a problem with the links you have posted? Stand up and be counted my friend! [–] discostrings 13y ago ↗ I think the question is more along the lines of how long IPs are stored for logged in users, etc.It's a valid question, especially for a site that seems to respect the privacy of its users (it doesn't even require an email address to sign up!).
