Eh..as few mentioned it's a public forum and if you are that afraid that your info might leak out, you should be responsible for that only. It's a public forum everyone can view things, who ask you to post your address or contact info? If you wanna give, do it through pm!

The scrap got such option is because it's somewhat a private thing between you and your friends here but not something for the public to view. I notice that after the scrap feature is on many people complain strangers are adding in then you just decline request it's that simple if you don't wanna be stalked privately. But publicly...just be smart and be public not private 😆

I guess converting I-F to a social networking site was done in a half baked manner... most people dont even know how to use the existing features... and then the slam book.. scrap book.....testimonial etc....a lot of work....

IF is a public forum. As is, your posts are visible for everyone to read. Even the non members. PMs are available for private chats. The purpose of CCs is basically for random chatting that we cannot carry out on the main forums.

We do have a 'My posts' button on the top bar next to the logout. I personally use that, and not the 'My Posts' button on the profile/dashboard. Others can use the 'search' button below the posts. So whether the 'My Posts' button on the profile exists or not doesn't make much of a difference.

my view is that it is good

coz otherwise u wud never know where ur friends posted and u also come across interesting posts a threads to post in that maybe u would have never come across otherwise.

that is who i started posting in DM and ML thru checking a friends posts

i agree however that there are folk that stalk per say, i can say im not wanna them, so for that purpose i feel that maybe the other members my post button should only be visible to friends

Having said that though searching thru someones posts is a good way to make friends coz u may post in similar topics im not saying look thru posts here, i mean u can check the thread titles and if they are of similar interest u can send buddy request

My final thought is im all for the My post button for other members coz when they were removed for a short while i found it impossible to see where my friends were posting it was annoying

oh and another thing if the my posts button wasn't there on member profiles then u wud have to use search button on the members posts but thats no easy thing coz u'd still need to know where the member posted, sometimes ur friends post in different threads than u so wud be hard using the search button to check where ur friends posted

i guess thats a good point cos we can actually find out posts eventually with the search options....
