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.

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.

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 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.

^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.

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.

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?

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..

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.

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.

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
