I am playing on some minecraft servers that can see my ip address. I don't want others to know my IP. It feels really weird. Is there some way I can hide it in game?
i have heard that we can use proxy so how to use proxies
The thing is... every website that you visit has your IP... it is how the internet works. If you do not want people to know your IP, do not go on the internet.
Unless you have a Dynamic IP address that is. I have ADSL and my IP address renews every time I restart my router. It makes hosting servers a bit more work but I like the added security. Companies *could* contact my ISP and get a list of previous IP addresses I've used but I'm not too worried about it.

I don't think you can hide it because they need it if they ever want to ip ban you.
This has happened to me before: The owner of the server tracked me down and now knows what city and state I live in.
Using a proxy would probably not give you an enjoyable experience, as it would send your ping through the roof.
