Does it say 'you can't message this person because you have no public pics' when they try to send a pic I wonder? Coz then they'd know what to change quick to bypass it..

Yes I would have thought so. The same with age preference and only men able to message.

I can't message you because I'm outside your age limit - so that bit works.

"Its not the avatar pic its pics on profile. "

I'm sure ruggers has said befure that an avatar counts as a public pic even if it's not also in the public gallery.

Pictures are harder. Say for example you want to take a break from the scene for a bit so you hide your profile and set pics to private to drum down interest, then on your return you put pics back to public but cant message anyone as youve previously had them private, just dont see that working well.

I find that filter never works for me either!

I'm definitely not interested in hearing from, or replying to messages from anyone who has no photos, but despite having that message filter set, they still get through...

It's annoying, and wastes my time and theirs, but they just get ignored, often blocked - but why should I have to even do that when the filter is there???

Maybe have it so if someone has thw filter r you have to have had a public picture on display for at least 14 consecutive days.

Stops people sticking one on sending a message then removing it

But isn't really an issue for a long term member who is taking a break and comming bwck

The wouldn't need to someone comming back wouldn't really mind having to wait two weeks to message certain people after putting thier pics back up because they'll be here for a while anyway

but the pop up spam messages then unlos people wouldn't be here long enough to have them up for 2 weeks.

Lol yes i probably should have added that i know my pic is public so woyldnt matter for me, but some hide pics along with the profile when taking a break but remaining active for the forums, it would effect them then

But when they come back and make thier pics public a two week wait to message a very small minority with this feature is hardly a great burden is it.

They could always put a "time" related rule on... so you can only change the status of a picture one in 24 hours.
