Privacy option

[Wizerzak]

Is there possibly a chance that some sort of privacy option for your profile could be implemented into GBAtemp?
At the moment, if you're a guest, you cannot see a person's avatar on the boards, but if you go to that person's profile it shows up. Also on their profile you can see all (recent) posts / threads made by that person.

So what I'm asking for is, would it be possible for an option in my controls to be added so we can change our privacy settings to the above?
There should at least be an option to hide recent posts and avatar from guests but maybe the info should also be hidden from members with

They can't stalk on your profile. That's the use of this option.

Read the previous posts, that might help you understand.

I think its a good idea to carry on.

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

The voices told me you would say that.

I've actually already made a counter-measure to this, but as I'm not given any real input I won't be giving it away.
It's very similar to the post ignore/hide function. There's also another solution, which involves the same technique used to "trash" posts.

Or alternatively, you could just disable advanced search for guests

Fuck yeah!

I totally agree with this idea, it should be implemented ASAP!

I don't need anonymous guests knowing I'm a furry....oh wait...

Seriously though, this would be awesome. Guests do not need to see our profiles, avatars, etc.

In fact, lets do this,

Guests can't view

Profiles
Post Count
Avatars
Signagtures? Maybe...

Didn't you notice?

Sounds easy enough for me to code.

In fact, I already did

"Profile Privacy" on the bottom, I just added that.

Avatars ARE hidden for guests on profiles btw.
