I agree about being cautious Tara but forums are reality while you are here posting, .nothing different here online to how I am in my everyday life...so forums are real if I thought they were not I wouldn't bother coming here

People always say that but we are all real people, only difference is we type our chat instead of using our voices.

Do these words appear on your profile page......

'Sorry This User Has Set Their Profile To Private.... You Will Need To Log In/Register To View It'

Or can your profile be seen?

That's what it's for isn't it?

I agree carol.
Arty we covered this the other day surely, in your thread about how much we give away of ourselves...

On page10 post94 I asked Admin to clarify if our profiles were available to be viewed by any passing Tom Dick or Harry or if they were only readable by registered members, but there wasn't a reply.

Yes! ruthio but this thread is not meant to be about how much you say about yourself on your profile.
I was referring to profiles that can be seen by anyone not logged in, looking at the site and clicking onto a member's profile.
All l can suggest to show what l mean, is for members to log off, then view the site whilst logged off. If a member hasn't set their profile to 'Private' then their profile can be seen by anyone who clicks onto it! Profiles set to 'Private' carry the caption l posted upthread.

can only repeat the request for Admin to clarify what is available to the UN registered public.

Re: Do You Keep It Private Or, Just Flaunt It?

My profile is set to restrict viewing to members only so only those who have logged in can see it .

To do this you go to the Control Panel/Settings and options/Edit Options and select the box that says ...
Restrict viewing of profile to Members only? yes

Meg Tara was commenting on the other thread about people's photos in their profiles of babies and small children.

Are these photos available too for the general public to view unless the profile setting is adjusted?

I bet lots of members have no idea about this.
