Hide your email address.

Hello gang

I suspect a few recent registrations are people who've registered only so they can view other peoples profiles and write down their email addresses. I highly advise that you go into your profile - account related settings and select to hide your email from the public to prevent this "harvesting"

if someone wants to contact you, they can pm you and you can decide whether or not to disclose your email to them. Heck, sign up for a 'pokerforum.ca' email just for use of giving out so you don't have to disclose your usual address if you want. :)

    Is there any way that you could do something crazy like have "Full" or "Elite" member rights. So newbies can't browse them?

    Just wondering.

    And, thanks a ton for the heads up.

    EDIT:

    ATTN: Email harvesters. I will buy ANYTHING you put in my inbox. ;)

    sadly no, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it available when we switch to VB this month.
