davej Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Why does the profile contact information seem to omit e-mail? You can list various instant message services. You can list a website. But I don't see e-mail -- or at least it isn't obvious to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niche Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I've seen several members with their emails posted. The just put there email in one of the slots. Though, you're right. There should be a specific place for emails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davej Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 I suppose e-mail is often offered in a masked/blind manner -- but if that sort of feature is there I just don't see how it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 A lot of people don't want to be contacted by strangers.Often systems like this one have a checkbox saying "Make my e-mail public" but it seems to not be a feature on this forum software.

birbal Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 ..and also another reason some of bots fetch email address from sites to spam the email owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest So Called Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Why don't you just PM the person and ask them for their email address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davej Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 Apparently that doesn't always work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
