How do I hide my email in the forum?

Hmmm... that's a good question. It looks like the account settings page should allow one to opt-in/out as they like, but I don't know if it works properly. I'll have Jason take a look at this.  Thanks!

I just unchecked that box next to "allow others to email me" and it doesn't look like it removed the email button under my avatar.

I looked through my settings and can't find allow users to email me option.

So I went to profile->modify profile tab-> and it lists forum profile, look and layout, notifications, and personal messaging .Is this the right spot? Sorry if i'm being a pain in the arse.

Does this link work for you? http://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;area=account;u=12980

There should be a part in the  middle of the page where you can toggle "allow users to email me." Not sure if it works - we're still trying to figure that out, lol.

Yeah apparently the email settings are only visible to admins.
