  To be fair though peer to peer has some fairly big flaws like giving other people your IP and in some implementations the connection speed for everyone is set by the weakest link.

    True but you are still at the end of the day giving the host your IP still, it just can't be seen by the other players by normal means.

  Peer to peer just means one of you is hosting a server.

  That just falls under host it yourself to me.
