Ok, so i commented out line 638 of wp-includes/comment-functions.php file

$notify_message .= “Whois : https://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput=$comment->comment_author_IP\r\n”;

It seems to work, but will that break anything?

That’s it,

we want level 1’s to be able to post drafts. when we approve the draft and put it on the site they’re gettingthe notifier emails (which we didn’t know would happen but we think it’s extremely cool)

but it’s not fair to expect commenters to know that any old level 1 will get their IP details.

if a blog is talking about anything serious then there’s a chance of sharks in the water.
