I really don't want to know who looked at my profile or see records displayed of everyones' online activity, including my own. What is the purpose of these features? I can't think of another message board that is set up like this other than searching for "last posts" "threads started by" and "photos posted."

I don't know what you mean exactly as I can't look at profiles. It is common on some V-boards for a member's profile to show when s/he last logged on and what s/he last viewed - thread or profile. Is there more than that?

Moderators and other staff usually have instant access to the IP of every action made, but that's not public info. It is a privately owned board so I guess staff has a right to see anything that happens, even Private Messaging done on the board if that ability may have been added, but again that's not public. I know that behind my back gossip is inevitable as well as inaccurate, and I have uncovered evidence with me as the subject that was truly amazing in how unfair it can be - but then I'd think that you would enjoy anything that had to do with insulting me. :cool1:

But tell us what you mean. I have been curious about some other problems here and wonder how it may fit?

Damn, no one has looked at my profile in two days? I hate that. That's the best pic I have, and they don't allow cartoon avatars; I may as well put up the backside of my head for one...

You can also rate members like your movies at Netflix or Blockbuster..1-5 stars.

Haha, you must love lowering mine. Can you do it more than once? Guess I should check on your comments on my profile, or can I do that as a non-supporting member?

Ok, I tweaked my settings so that I have to approve any Fairybasslet's slanderous comments she may try to leave on me. :lmao: I already had email notification of comments so I guess I'm clean there so far.

I see that you can see the last five threads I viewed. Kinda excessive, huh...?
