Access to personal contact information

[livinoz]

I've noticed that anyone on the 'net can access a member's contact information (eg, msn address, skype name) if they have put that on their profile page.

Is there any way this can be restricted to logged in members only, to prevent unwanted or abusive emailing, etc?

We'll have a look at it.

Thank you.

That's part of why I do not list such, besides - all the data miner would have to do with that change is register a new Username.

You come up with good thread ideas

You can't be serious. If you don't want it available, don't put it in your profile. You can't think the 100,000 registered members of ScubaBoard is some kind of exclusive club.

Perhaps we can start a mutual admiration society thread?

(But NOT in site support)

You are correct it is not exclusive, but it makes it that much harder for the bad guy to get information on me . . .

Yeah, I don't think my humor is appreciated in site support . . .

I wasn't talking about the members, I was talking about anyone that comes to the site. You don't have to be a member or logged in to access profile information. I thought you did.

And after a nasty incident I have now taken it off my profile.

Thanks.
