A move to make forum posters to be more responsible of
their postings, as their anonymousness is lesser with
IP revealed.

Not easy. Dial ups usually have Dynamic IPs which is a
bit difficult to pinpoint.

But less people will use dual identity as they need
to disconnect and connect again. On the other hand, it
expose people with static IP to hacking risks.
