Showing The Newest Members

This was on the old forum, where you could look at the bottom of the page, and it would show you the newest user to sign up. I think this could be useful for users who evade forum bans, and as well as other rule offenders.

And this relates to showing the latest registered member.... how?

It helps for ban evaders because if you see a newly registered member you can match IPs with other users..

Method used on other forums..

Not like they're going to stalk newly registered users to see if they were previously banned?? Besides, IP bans are a thing.

I don't think seeing the newest member is necessary, but I also don't think it is bad, so I am neutral.

Volunteers and moderators should depend on the newest member feature to find ban evaders if it's added...

IPS is advanced and there are much better methods of finding accounts matching IPs.

People can change their IPs. Or use a VPN.
