    Default Is it possible...

    To only have our contact info (MSN, Y!M, AIM) only visible to members? I don't mind members having that info, but a lurker added me to his MSN list today, just because he felt like it. That creeped me out a little...
    So, is it a possibility?

    I'm pretty sure that could be easily arranged with a tiny change of coding on a memberinfo template. I'll wait for more input just in case, but yeah.

    You could just do the "PM me for it!" thing, which is now a highly hip and fashionable trend. Originally, I only changed my information to that because of spam bots scanning sites like this for email/IM addresses, and such a change would eliminate the need to do so.

    pffft. He didn't say it. He just made a humorous joke on his membership application.

    Yeah, well... I invented the Internet, but in 1993 sold the rights over to Al Gore.

    Yes I did. I also invented that nifty quote thing where you quote someone's post and then post no reply of your own.

    Yeah, some guy used to do that a lot a few years back. It was quite sad really.

    I'll second the motion to have contact info withheld from guests. Over the past few days, I've received a number of AIM and MSN messages from people I didn't know at all. The ones I checked didn't match any members from here.

    Exactly. I don't mind the info being public to members, but not to just anyone who lurks here...
