An IP Address is just a set of numbers that identifies your internet account.
Something like this:
180.90.000.1
Admins can put that number in an IP tool or tracker and it will give them the city and state, or even the country if it's foreign based. It also tells you the name of your internet provider.
Some forums (Maybe All actually) can block your IP and then you have to get a new IP to see the forum. I used to be a forum junkie but I had to give them all up. (*Cough*)
You can make a free forum just to see how it works then delete it or whatever, it's kinda neat actually.
