Title: Email addresses
Post by: lem0nhead on May 07, 2008, 06:17:52 AM: I ticked the "hide email address" but if you go on members my email address is available there for emailing and so you can see what it is.

Is that not working right or something?

Can you stop this Kralik? I hate having an undisguised email address on the net for a spam bot to trawl through and find.

Post by: Kralik on May 07, 2008, 06:20:20 AM: I'm pretty such there is a setting that lets members see your email address but not guests. Even so, it may be allowing you to see it simply because you are you! I'll check.

Post by: lem0nhead on May 07, 2008, 06:21:27 AM: No it shows all those with email addresses entered if u click no the little icon in the email column. But i generally wanted it hidden esepcially to guests.

Thanks for looking into it.

Post by: Kralik on May 07, 2008, 06:22:56 AM: This is what I have in the Global Settings:
Allow users to hide their email from everyone except admins? (YES)
Do not reveal contact details of members to guests (YES)

And in your profile you have checked:
Hide email address from public? (YES)

Try seeing if your email address is visible as a guest, or perhaps ask another member (not an admin) to check and see if it lists your address.

I just logged off for a moment... in your profile it says your email address is "hidden."

Post by: lem0nhead on May 07, 2008, 06:25:24 AM: Right so its only viewable to members?

Post by: Kralik on May 07, 2008, 06:27:38 AM: Should be. :)

Post by: Kralik on May 07, 2008, 06:37:30 AM: It's not my fault! I can't hide it from an admin! ;)

Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Kralik on May 07, 2008, 06:40:39 AM: But since you brought it up, I recommend that everyone check the box marked "Hide email address from public?" in your Profile-->Account Related Settings. Believe it or not, there are worse things out there than Dain! :o

Oh... I could tell you stories that would scare the juice out of you!

the question is...could it scare the spam (spammer?) out of me?
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Hobbit_Pizza on May 08, 2008, 10:39:12 AM: I understand now what lemon was talking about earlier. I see an icon for my email, and when I hover over it I see my address. I know that I have the "do not show" checkbox marked in my settings...I just want to double-check that I'm the only one seeing it.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Kralik on May 08, 2008, 10:44:37 AM: You see it because you are a member and logged in. Try logging out and check it as a guest.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Hobbit_Pizza on May 08, 2008, 10:49:37 AM: I know it will dissapear if I'm a guest. I'm curious if other members see it (those without admin).
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Kralik on May 08, 2008, 12:43:58 PM: I couldn't tell you... perhaps you could ask one? There should be an option somewhere to hide your email address from other members, if you are concerned.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Hobbit_Pizza on May 08, 2008, 01:08:58 PM: Not really concerned, just that I can't see others email addresses...so I don't want to be the only one...
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: AgentDrake on May 08, 2008, 03:30:55 PM: Weird. I can see mine and Dain's, but no-one else's, including Pizza's.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Kralik on May 08, 2008, 04:34:53 PM: Can you see mine? Perhaps you can see Dain's since he's an admin.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Hobbit_Pizza on May 08, 2008, 04:50:16 PM: I don't see yours.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Kralik on May 08, 2008, 05:02:34 PM: I take it he hasn't hidden his, then.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: MR. Lurtzy on May 08, 2008, 05:54:23 PM: Can y'all see mine? I haven't hidden it.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: AgentDrake on May 08, 2008, 06:02:07 PM: Yeah, I see Lurtzy's and Kraliks. Anyone else see mine, or is it just me?
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: Hobbit_Pizza on May 08, 2008, 06:16:22 PM: Just you.
Title: Re: Email addresses
Post by: MR. Lurtzy on May 08, 2008, 06:25:04 PM: I have a little envelope under most of the names and if I click on it gives me their email... so I think everyone should be able to see them.
