I've noticed a few Guests on the boards, and either its some of us not logging in and viewing profiles, or it's spammers
viewing profiles to get email addresses.

I've already blocked Profile viewing by guests but I do recommend that everyone go in a block their emails from being viewed if you haven't already done this when you first signed up.

This is how you do it....

<1> Click on "PROFILE" button Next to the "LOGOUT" button above
<2> Click on "Account Related Settings" in the left menu second block down
<3> Put a Check in the box next to "Hide Email Address from public"
        and at the bottom of that page you'll see the "Current Password"...enter
        Your current Password so it can make the changes to your profile.

And thats it!

I'm sure most people ussually check the Block Email Address, but just in case
you wanted to double check your profile settings I figured I'd put this post up.

 I've noticed that I've received a little bit of addition junk mail lately to a
email address that I only use on this system...I have 4 email addresses in total.
So, I checked and Did have my email address set to be view by others..which might
or might not be the reason for it.
 
 If you have any further questions, please let me know.
 Thanks,
          Savage

P.S. I just tested the new settings, and Guest not logged in CAN NOT see your profile information.
So, we're safe there as far as Spammer trying to access our email addresses.
 I just thought you'd all like to know we're SECURE!

on a side note,
  We do have the message board set so new people have to be approved before they're allowed to login and post.
So, If anyone that any of us know...are signing up to use the Message board, just let us know who they are and we'll make sure they get added as soon as possible.
 We're pretty quick on checking out the people trying to register...but, it never hurts to know when a REAL new users is trying to be added.

 I also still suggest that everyone double checks their profile settings like I listed above..and make sure your email address is in the hidden setting...just for double safety.
