I'll take a more harsh stance here; If all this fuss is over an IP alone, I suggest you unplug your internet right now, and your friend aswell. That you can be tracked back on the internet should be one of your least worries when it comes to privacy and the internet.
Moreso, Side-Operators can see your IP simply by the fact that you connect to it. What they do with this information is up to them, and there's no 'ethic' grounds to it. There's a good reason the internet operates the way it does. Anonymity is a 'Myth' when it comes to the internet.
If you want to hide your personal information, get used to using proxies and the likes. Otherwise, improbable. The moment someone gets your current IP, he can track 'everything'. Your Provider, your address, your home, and thanks to google earth, even a picture of your location + house. Anonymity, is, a myth. Also, I learned early in my time as online person that trust is missplaced when it comes to the internet. Never use an E-mail you need in your Real life/Professional Life. Use a 'hobby-one' instead.
On another note: Not mentioning specific members of the Staff doesn't make it better. That way the Administration itself will be cast under a suspicious light, not only the accused. Moreso, I would suggest you take it to PM's next time, and address people privately, and only if denied a proper talk there, 'then' you resort to making such things public. This is in itself damaging If there's not a conclusive 'No we didn't do it' statement. And all you're perpetuating through it is a negative image of said on-sight leadership,.
