Private Profile option

Don't think you can preclude yourself from the law because you can't afford to obey the law.

If not a part of Boards, are Admins a defacto third party? Has the relationship been formalised since GDPR?

No, because FOI only applies to public bodies.

Read the thread, it was raised on Day 1

This is very true. There are certain posters that only seem to exist to post contrarian views, belittle or bait others, and do so repeatedly across varying topics to the point that it becomes obvious and predictable.

Yet they go completely ignored by the mods who will sanction others for far less, often because they seem to disagree with the content more than anything.

My own take is that it's akin to radio talk shows having callers on who make outlandish or off the wall comments that then prompts others to call in and argue with them.

Given the state of this site these days it's probably a deliberate effort to try and retain the reduced traffic that remains.

Is the most straightforward way just a euphemism for the cheapest way?

The account that you created an hour ago, seemingly just to post this?

Can I get a price for braodband and wifi and multiroom pack my email is <removed> ty

I can't see that on mobile, I presume you still need to send an email and hope for the best?

So, 5 months later, what's the problem?

So ... it looks like option was removed, but selection remain as it was. Interesting...

@shmeee your profile appear as private, and i cannot see option on my own anymore.

To post PM to any user, just go to your messages, start new message and provide full name for recipient, as such..

Workaround was mentioned several times before, but yeah, not everyone would be aware.

As for making profile public - don't see how, perhaps @Boards.ie: Niamh could help with that.

So just to clarify Niamh, all posts made across all forums will be visible on someone's profile?

Including posts made in Personal Issues?

If so, a very visible announcement needs to be added at the top of Personal Issues as people post in that forum under the assumption that people can't trawl through the posts they've made their on their profile.

To add to that, it also means historical posts made in good faith on that forum under the guise of them not appearing on your profile will now do so.

Prioritising moderator abilities over people's privacy on that forum IMO is a big misstep.

Edit - I'd actually add to that and say that if this is genuinely the way it's going to go, all content in Personal Issues should be deleted permanently as it was created with a different understanding to the level of privacy allowed with that forum.

The forum should then be started afresh with a very visible announcement that posts will now appear on your profile.

Also, is it correct that admins are given access to user data when they are not part of or employed by Boards?
