Feedback Request Considering the removal of the Profile Posts feature - Thoughts?

[GOG]

Give it the go by.

Only used it once... I would not miss it.

I usually check notifications for things im watching for, new posts then if I'm still interested I check the different forums.

I say heave ho.

 

[v0lcom13sn0w]

never really used it

Early on I got a couple of responses to classified ads on my Profile Posts. Didn't see them for months. The poster probably thought I was rude but I just didn't know they were there.
Bye-bye be okay.

No Please, it's a useful tool for us moderators! I use it quite a bit my self!

If you could some how keep it for staff, at least that would help!

So you intentionally ignored that guy trying to hunt your ranch?
Seems you just want everyone to know @CountryGent wished you a merry xmas in 2018

 

[Flymph]

If it makes your job easier in the long run, I see no reason to keep it.

 

[aflineman]

Make it gone please.

I like it...I have answered some gun and forum questions using it...
Plus it can give one a space to post a quote or something of interest...but , is not quite thread worthy.

That said if it doesn't get used much , by most members or takes up "space" that could have a better use ...
Then I can also see it going away.
( Now just don't be using that line of thought for the Black Powder Discussion Sub Section... )

I'd cut it. I think there's one post on mine that should have been a PM. No biggie, but certain'y no loss for me.

 

[Mrnorke]

Until this post I didn't know about it. So wont hurt my feelings.

I believe the original intent was to create something similar to a Facebook wall,

If this is in fact true then YES ! please remove it.

I say stick with the KISS theory.

Hmmm. I use the feature to see peoples history. If I was considering a buy/sell, to/from a member without feedback I go to the page where I can view posting history. If a member seems a bit "off" or something I use previous posts as a guide. I would be cautious of folks that block their profiles if they were new to the forum if I were looking to buy or sell.
I use it as a way to help me get to know the members.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Just to be clear, this is only the "Profile Posts" page on the profile, not the profile itself

 

[RangerArms]

I say remove it for members but keep it for mods and staff.

 

[Spitpatch]

Woah, Woah.
Moderators here seem to be in the minority toward keeping it, advising they use it. As a person who was offered that position at one point (politely declining),
I'd like a brief window on that process... if that wouldn't be too much trouble. Let 'em make their case.

Profile Posts? Never heard of her.

 

[Pandaz3]

I can see where the dirty rotten staff and dirtier rotten moderators like it, but a nice clean cut, handsome member, such as myself, well I do not use it.

 

[DirectDrive]

If the mods want it, then it can't be any good.

 

[Mica]

What, I have a profile post.
I guess I wouldn't miss it.

I check mine like once every few years, so yea, I guess I was ignoring folks, and @CountryGent, happy holidays to you too Brother, only two years late!


Actually, it's not the "Profile Posts" I use, its the other features under the Members Profile I use, I can search quickly and more accurately for their content and see what mischief they might have been up to!
