they won't know you have hidden unless they look.

I just looked, I wouldn't have but you posted and drew my attention to you.

But I thought that if you hide your profile then no one can actually _iew it as it has been hidden and "hidden" being the whole point, so its rather baffling if you know what I mean?

I never saw your profile, it won't come up in searches but if someone is reading an old thread and you posted on it or they have you hotlisted, they may click on your profile

they see 'this profile is hidden'

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

If you want to stop all _iews also set your filters. You won't show up in any searches. Take your avatar down too. That will stop all but the forum lurkers from clicking on you.

Smell what? Are you suggesting that the site are so desperate for income they use fake profiles to look at your profile so that you spend a whole £5 voluntarily?

Yes even if hidden. They just can't read the text of your profile or your verifications.

Do a search on your profile and then you will see how it appears !

yeah I guess it did cross my mind hence the reason for the post, if you want to carry on the reasoning for this post feel free to pm as I don't want to keep this thread going as I have already had some advice

"well it's not actually FREE is it, you still have to pay to use certain services, like...wait for it...people who have _iewed your profile "

Yes but it's your choice to pay for those certain services. You can still use the site perfectly well without them. So it is a free site with optional extras if wanted....
