An Important Message for "Hidden Users"

(1/10) > >>

Phillip Dampier:
Attention All Users

I have received a substantial number of messages from BetterMost users regarding users appearing on the forum as hidden.  This happens when a user sets their profile to not Show others your online status.  Many users have expressed concern about this option potentially being abused by trolls if/when they reach this site.  It has further caused a lot of suspicion about the merits of this option being used by users.

Because I've had well over a dozen members contact me about this matter, I am going to be turning off the "hidden" option for members effective April 5th.  I wanted to give advance warning before doing this so users are aware of the change.

I want to let users who did choose not to be listed in the online status that you did absolutely nothing wrong, nor has anyone who has used this option been a concern to me at all.  But considering the sensitivity of forum members who have been through a lot during the Troll Wars, I'm going to turn this option off for now.

Thanks for your understanding.

Wow - a sensitive, thoughtful and proactive administrator?  Phillip, you're a doll.  Us refugees from IMDb aren't used to such nice treatment - it will take some getting used to!  :)

Becky:
Wow Philip, if bettermost were a hotel I would give it 7 stars! I love it here and as Nicole said we are not used to the briliant treatment we recieve here, I feel spoiled! :-*

cmr107:
Phillip, you're just too good to us. I was wondering about that. Thanks again for EVERYTHING!  :-*

Hi Phillip,

Thanks for everything, the site is amazing.  I wouldn't know the first thing about creating such a thing but I'm glad people with that knowledge are out there!

The 'hidden' thing has been interesting to me.  When there's only one person hidden and they are posting, it's kinda easy to figure out who is hidden!  That has been endlessly amusing me.... hehehe...

OK, that's all on the hidden thang and thanks again...

 :)  Jimmy
