Multiple Questions

I have a few questions about certain concrete5 features. Any help is appreciated.
1. I'm at the Users and Groups section of the dashboard and I'm at the "User Registration" tab. It seems to state something about "Public Profiles" for members, but I'm not exactly sure what these are. Is it the profile the member creates as the member registers, or is it something different?
2. Is there any way to enable commenting for members only, and when they comment it provides a link to there profile? That way there could be no people impersonating others, and then people could see the commenter's profile.
3. When somebody is commenting, is there any way to see there IP address? I've had some spammer issues in the past, and the only way I have gotten rid of them is by adding Known Spammer IP Ban Lists. I'm not sure if this feature exists, but it would be much more efficient then my method.
If anyone could help with these questions, that would be great.

Answers:
1. Thanks.
2. Ok now I see it. It said must login to C5, so I thought they must have a C5 account from this site, but it makes sense now that they need to be registered on the site.
3. I know about the list, but when somebody is commenting, is there anyway to see the commenters IP, so I could then add it to the IP Ban list if they are spamming?

hrrmmm.. i'm not sure there's an easy way to see which user logged in from which IP without getting into the logs..
this should be added in the feature requests section as it makes a lot of sense to me.

2) yes, guestbook block has an option for this.
3) yes, dashboard has a IP ban list.
