By default we do not openly post your email address. We have the board set so that no one (except board administrators) should be able to see your email address.
Unless you change the "show email" settings during registration or later by updating it on your profile or if you post your email address in a forum message, no one should be able to see it.
As an example of what everyone will see please look at the TROACH user id under the member list. This id was set up with the board's default settings.
The PM button that you see will allow a user to send you a private message stored on our system. The BB system will then notify you (unless the function is turned off) of the message waiting for you. Thus preventing the sender from seeing your email address. Only registered users can send or post messages, if you ever receive a message that is not appropriate let us know and we will take actions. |
