Viewing Profiles

[Steve H]

Its been pointed out in another thread that its not possible to view other peoples profiles on the forum. I am reluctant to add this permission without a consensus agreement to do so. The options we have are
a) Leave it as it as I wish my profile to remain private
b) Grant the permission to view profiles to memebrs who have posted a certain number of messages on the forum, this would hopefully stop someone joined and trawling for profile details.
c) Just open up the permission to everyone regardless of how many posts they have made.

Either respond to this thread or PM me. No response will indicate no change required

Please leave mine as above.    My writing bares my soul to easily on this site sometimes, anyway!

Option B for me too, please, with chips and a side-salad.

[guest29]

I'll have a B please Bob!

B sounds good to me

B sounds good for me with a proviso of say 100 postings?

Well, as I was one of the folk that raised it, i never imagined that no one could see any of the profiles  what a funny way of going on that is ? makes a bit of a mockery of having a profile attached !....mind you, it's a good excuse not to fill it in 
I have to say, that my main interest in being able to see a profile revolves around getting an insight into which part of the country someone is in, which s useful when talking about buying, selling, casual & formal Meets / Ride Outs etc.
Makes no odds otherwise, I guess, but at least I know it's nothing personal now.
Plan B is always good, whatever the alternative options.
Also leads to the amusing trait of folks posting 99 one word posts, so they can build up their tally to be 'inclusive'.....

Next....22

Like all other profiles on all other forums/sites I frequent, the only restriction is if you are a logged in member. As said previously, why bother having it, I know who I am and dont need to remind myself why I am here. However its up to the individuals as to how much they want to share.
I'll settle for a "B"

Hint: never never never list your birthdate. Some institutions use this as an identifier when checking out credentials.

On second thought... Ive just looked at my profile and noticed that this profile is sort of different to the others and is only suitable for private use. change mine to "A" and maybe consider doing a "profile" where we can list our details EG hobbies, ICQ, Messenger Email and personal details photos etc that we may want to share.
Any other ideas anyone?

A is fine by me.

It'd be nice to see where everyone is in the country, it could be as vague as you wanted. I wouldn't mind Llanelli being put under my name with each post.

Other than that as long as we are able to email or pm members if needed, thats fine.
