“HIDE MY PROFILE” OPTION WILL BE DISABLED SUNDAY 7/14/2024
We’re going to disable the “Hide My Profile” option on Sunday, 7/14/2024, at roughly 8pm CDT. After this time, you will no longer be able to hide your profile and any optional information you’ve posted in it will be publicly accessible.
If your profile is now hidden and you put something in it you don’t want others to see, now’s the time to edit or delete this material. To access your profile, click on:
Your avatar (graphic or initial at upper right) > Preferences icon (bottom of list) > Profile
This calls up a page showing any Profile information you previously entered. Please edit or delete anything you don’t want others to see. All entries on this page are optional and can be changed at any time - you can leave all input fields blank if you want.
The reasons for this change and a fuller explanation of what Profiles are may found at:
Just checked my profile (I wanted to amend it to reflect my preference AGAINST avatars). Oddly enough, everything I had written about myself twenty-four years ago was missing.
The email address you put in the spot where it says “never shown to the public” is, in fact, never shown to the public and is not affected by this change.
In a panic I guess, I changed my ‘never shown to the public’ email address to some randomly generated disposable email address. After reading the above ““never shown to the public” is, in fact, never shown to the public and is not affected by this change.” How can I verify that this statement represents what’s really gonna happen?
I kinda liked getting reminders from this website in my inbox.
