David,

It's because you never write anything else with the IP, it could mean
anything.  A smarter move would include a description.

That won't happen on my crossfire server, I've configured it so that the
most that will happen is that you get returned to the beginning position
with all you equipment and experience if something goes wrong.  Dying still
