This is irrelevant to tech and all that. But I just wanted to compliment on the update user-profile. It looks a lot different than the old one, but I'll get the hang of it. Thank you.

VBulletin is cool, but sometimes it's too cool that it freaks me out. :laugh:
I clicked on someone username and I saw the Edit Profile link. :lip:
I thought something is wrong. Click on the link, but it didn't work. Phew.
But... the new user profile will show user's email if set it to show. Will bots be able to harvest it?
I remember previously all we have is a link to email the user, can't remember seeing the email address though.

Logged out and view the profiles. No email addresses. Cool. 
Yikes.

My e-mail address might be "harvested" at the moment. :laugh:. No worries. SPAM-Blocker!

I think you can change your it in your User CP for it not to show.
Oof. I'm having trouble finding it. I might as well leave it. Safe surfing practice. Don't answer unknown e-mails and attachments.
Yep. Hit with the "Secret Crush" and Free Visa spam mail. Deleted.
Phew (relief). Thanks tashi. I couldn't find it... sadly.
Ew. Canned foods? Lols. Spam-Blocker! :laugh:
Luncheon meat... yummy. :clown:
But not my favourite brand.

I recently noticed a major change. There's a friends list. Statistics... that stand out lols.
What caught my attention was the "blog posts". What's with this? :cowboy:

Phew, I had trouble finding that option aswell! :clown:
For a moment there I thought I was gonna be spammed to oblivion! :laugh:
>;P, I saw one at the local supermarket. Ew, the thought of luncheon meat in... some watery floating sauce just made me want to :yuck: and walk away.
Aha, not like that. But just didn't like the thought of canned food. Not good for your health >

I see. However, members cannot start their own topic correct?

Hmmm....
While setting up the blog and playing around yesterday, I think I haven't enabled the blog for members of the standard "registered users" usergroup yet :lip:
You see, it's yet another place spambots that would get through the registration could dump their trash, which has to be patrolled
olice:
We can enable it and see how it goes though, and if we need to restrict access again, we could always create an additional usergroup for bloggers.
A warning that Tashi reminded me about yesterday though: blogging was kind of a hype, but keeping a blog flowing with useful entries can be hard work

Yikes. :snorkle: Maybe it's not such a good idea. I'm not sure. What I was thinking first was... users like you or tashi could post some interesting stories and posts. Regular members are restricted to only viewing them and commenting them. .
Well that'll depend on the folks of this forum. A poll? But that would be too much work.
The picture I got when you said about members posting their own blog would be like... members talking about their day, or just some carefree stuff. Computers hobbies and all that. Computer tech stuff can be posted in the Tavern or Spybot forums. :cowboy:
