Can you *please* set accounts to default to hide email address?

I just did a google search on my email to see if it was publicly available, this site got a number of hits - and I know I *never* would have chosen to have it publicly show my email address.

A quick look, and of ~30 users I only found 2 how had their address hidden. This is a pretty big potential spam bot trap...

Thank you!

Hmn.....that kind of sucks.

What is your search like? I can't seem to find mine, looks like mine is hidden. So yeah, what was your search? username, e-mail, gamersyde.com?

Anyways, there is an option on your account that says "Display Email" you have to have that unchecked.

Changed so that it's never displayed. I don't even know why it's been a good idea to ever show it in the first place...
