Would it be taken into consideration that like the cB profiles were made private to all that visit this site.So instead they would have to register in order to view the profiles.

Because this guy googled me once and got info off my profile,even though I put my self at risk of that happening regardless but maybe it would provide some comfort to members like me (if there are any who feel that way).And with the amber personality disorder problem going on,I sort of thought it was good idea.

Ooooh... Good idea! ^_^

I actually like this idea.
I hate the random people i get on my profile and i somewhat feel a little vulnerable then if i was on facebook or myspace.

Me too.It's like.People are looking at us and we don't even know it.And with people like amber running around,they could steal our pics.

^LMFAO, so mean!

I'm 50/50 with this. I mean, there are some benefits of course, and there are some negatives. I mean, people could be talkin` smack about you! ohmy.gif


How could they talk smack about you? 0_o I thought it was just you have to be logged in to view profiles.

True.And they could even be like selling your info on ebay for some fat old woman/man who watches porn all day and plays with hotwheels.

What kind of negatives do you have in mind?

I think she means like now they are viewable by everyone.

I really like this idea. When the profiles were first made, I thought that was how it was, until I was able to view them when I wasn't logged in. Honestly, why would someone who's not a member want to view your CB profile? I think we should also be able to block people (members) from viewing our profiles. But then again, if you don't want people to see it don't post it.
iGio
^Great point on the blocking certain members from viewing your profile.That's a good idea too.So we can post it and keep unwanted guest/members from viewing.
shadowfax
Ooh, neat idea! I think it would be nice to only allow CB members to view our profiles if we choose to. Blocking certain members is a possibility.
iGio
Yeah.And with requiring people to register in order to view.It might increase the community if those people aren't perverts.And they might spread the word about cB,would that help out a bit?
TheReasonWhy
great idea! but if people only register so they can get in our profiles, that wouldn't really help. then would it be possible if we can choose what members can view? like at least have a post amount of 200 or so..
iGio
^Yeah I was thinking about that.But I didn't wanna say anything.But since you brought it up.Great idea =).
IVIike
I think we should have an option, because a lot of people visit my profile to get my layouts and stuff ermm.gif
shadowfax
Well, it would be better if you could enable and disable the visibility of your profile. So if you don't mind guests seeing it, they can.
freeflow
^ I agree. I think its a good idea though but it would be good for us to be able to choose if a guests can or guests can't. _smile.gif

I agree _smile.gif
karmakiller
Yes! I'm 100% for the option. Kinda reminds me of Myspace.
iGio
^Woo hoo =)

It's good to see more and more people looking in on the idea and contributing.
markmejia
I strongly agree. I know Jusun would be the only one to do this, but there could be an option in the settings panel where it's like:

Profile visible to:
- Everyone
- Official Members / Designers
- Friends
- My mom

Or something.
iGio
^Agreed.

Well he basically said everything I personally would like to see. Except My mom... I don't want my mommy seeing my profile. :(

Lol. :P

more like myspace with every suggestion _smile.gif

I think it sounds like a good idea, just have a option like myspace does to have it private to guests or not. I like that idea best _smile.gif
clarity
^ Yes which makes us even better than myspace cause we have some of the same stuff and MORE! :P
iGio
^Haha we pwn tom and his network. _smile.gif
