1. Have a symbol next to their name? |
2. Have the letters IP next to there name? |
3. Tell them to stop hiding? |
4. Go back to their spouse? |
5. Put them in another place of their own on DH? |
6. Or delete them? |
I can't count the number of times I have looked at " user has set profile to invisible ".
Its actually getting to be a pain at times and If they are chatting in the room and you ask to see their profile, they dissapear. Are the hiding from someone? Their spouse? what gives?
Dustin..... I think a great idea is to put some kind of symbol or the letters IP somewhere below their picture so I dont waste my time and looking at a blank screen..I have a slow computer so at times it will take a while to get back where i was.. anyone else thinks this is a good idea?

As far as I'm concerned, people who start polls and don't allow for an opinion totally different from their own are worse than people with invisible profiles.
At least people with invisible profiles usually have a good reason for it.
The only possible excuse for you not including a "leave them alone" option is that you are too immature to accept that everyone doesn't agree with you.
By the way---you have 2 posters here...both of whom disagree with you, yet you have 3 votes for #1.
Did you pad the vote by casting 3 votes of your own?

Hey Rooster! For those of us with slow computers, it is a pain and I would like to see something that would let us know before we go to them. I understand why they would make their profiles invisible but I agree with having something that tells others that they are invisible.

You are missing one option in your multiple choice. None of the above.
What do you mean, slow computers? It's the 21st century, you need to have an access to a faster computer, dial-up should be extinct. Of course, a slow computer is a pain.
That said, JMO, I disagree with marking invisible profiles as such. How do you know a hundred percent (or close to it) that if you contact a visible profile, it's worth your time? If you have a slow computer, get ready to accept consequences. My 2 cents.

I voted #1.
However I must comment on this post. I live on a farm pretty much in the middle of no where. The phone wires are very old (Not my wires. the phone company wires) and the options are very limited.
People like me have been left in the dust of internet growth. I do have satellite with limited up loads and down loads (cost of $55.00 per month). When I go past that limit then I am restricted by being slowed down.
So some of us would like to know BEFORE we click on a profile if it will be available.

Ah thanks. Now I know why I'll never live in a country.
You want to live in a country, to get away from the busy city, traffic, etc., seek peace, quiet, serenity and so forth... Well, this has its pros and cons. It's a 2-way street.
IMHO, I don't think that people with invisible profiles should be labeled as such.

ROFLMAO. Even people w/"pictured profiles" can have a fake pic..hello! This site doesn't 'catch' everyone who may just go to Photobucket and upload some 'random' person's pic and claim it as their own/to be them. They TRULY have NO way of knowing whether a person is truly who they CLAIM to be (regarding a pic); unless, of course, they're stupid enough to try and get away with passing off a celebrity as themself. Pfft!

Let me reword it better, I have blocked some people with pics only to find out they each have from 2 to 4 other profiles going, some with diffrent pics and some with not. I only blocked 6 and I have 3 pages full of their other alter egos. I don't get why a person would want mutiple profiles anyway. Nevermind, I just won't put up with it and shouldn't have to. I don't understand how they can have have multiples off one IP addy.

I noticed one of your options for dealing with invisible profiles was to delete them.
Maybe some people think all the shadows should be deleted.

Op I do feel for you and do understand, I have a friend that lives in no where land and has the same problem. It is frustrating at times to click on a profile who are very interesting then to find out they are invisible would like to read some more of their postings. So you are damn if you do and damn if you don't here in DH.

I am all for someone being able to have their profile invisible if that is their preference. However, I feel that there should be some way for the people they initiate contact with to view them. I have received winks- attempted to view the profile- and been unable to because it is invisible. Maybe there can be some way that when they initiate a contact the recipient has "viewing privileges"- even if they are just temporary. Just a suggestion from insignificant little ole me..... :~)

What makes an invisible person so important that you have to create a poll about them? If they are invisible its apparent that they dont want to be contacted. Move on and expend your energies on those that are visible. When a person joins this site its not about what you want but what they want.
Now about your profile, you dont have a picture, most of your profile says "didnt say" and your description lists you as being here for forums and friends only. Why not work a bit on your profile before condeming anyone else's. I am sure you have a good explanation for it but then again so do invisible people. Actually who is hiding, the invisible person who chooses to post a picture but doesnt accept inquiries or the shadow with no picture and less than completed profile?
You need another option button, one that says dont care.

ok well i have chosen to take my picture off because of the trolls and freaks on here and also i removed my description out too.. i am not going invisible because of others that search.. if i search for someone i will send them a message and a bio of myself and we go from there.. i will have my things back up eventually but i have gotten pictures that are a year or more older and when i get some new ones they will be posted.. i don't like the same picture up on my wall for months at a time.. i like to keep things updated. i have noticed that people put one pic up and leave it there and when i go to meet them.. they don't quite look the same.. there is a method to my madness and it works for me. i have met some wonderful people and not so wonderful, but there is always bad with the good.. it just makes searching easier on most of us here. constantly looking at a blank screen gets pretty old and having to wait for the screen to return to the search is a bit of a pain

What is the point of having a profile if you make it invisible? Also it makes it difficult when a person with an invisible profile contacts you but you can't see their profile to see if you are interested.

Pfft! Some people are ONLY here for friends AND forums. And people who know that about that person obviously do NOT think they are "hiding something".
Plus YOU know as well as anyone that people also may be invisible b/c they've found someone and are obviously NOT looking.
FFS.
No one should have to explain themself. Esp. NOT to YOU.
Also, another reason people go invisible is due to the psychoticness this place has become.

I agree with the POLL being crap ... and I hate these stupid polls
the poster always has an agenda and can never see from outside their own box.
Now ... as for invisible profiles .... fine ... no problem ...
invisible with no picture too .... I wouldn't even attempt to check those people out.
as for letting me know the profile is invisible ....
I see no reason for anyone to not agree with that idea ...
unless they really are into some sort of game playing in here and in that case ....
I have no use for them at all.
I don't block ... and I don't go invisible ...
I will deal with whatever comes my way.
As for old vs. new people ... that is a strawman argument
anyone with a good idea is worth listening to ... and this site is far from perfect.
You will see I have been on this site for some time but don't have any stars.
[ there is a very good reason for that ... time is precious ]
and .... ban dialup ... great idea ... now fork over the money for us to get high speed.

No it does not. Quit ASSuming shit. Some of us have been on DH as long as 3+ yrs. We may just be here for friends and forums b/c we are happily in a relationship, or maybe even married.
Also, we may have psychotic f**ktards who have stalked, harrassed, threatened, etc. us.
ANY # of reasons. You people need to stop being so f**king prudish and ASSuming shit.

OH BULL!!!
Maybe it did not occur to you that sometimes people have REASONS
REAL reasons they do not have their pictures on their profile.
Perhaps those reasons could be they have stalkers?
Or ex spouses?
Or abusers?
OR BOTH??
You really need to get a life because I DO happen to have a reason why I dont have my picture posted and that is because for one reason i just now retrieved my computer back after it crashed and havent got my data back up yet
and no 2. all the stuff i said so that when i DO post my pictures I make sure I put a town he does not know I am in or frequent or know where to find me then i immediately tell the person and explain AFTER the fact. I also blur or put a pic he wont easily recognise.

I have many friends that have their profile "invisible". There are several reasons it is used. Some have found a person that MIGHT be "Mr. Or Mrs. Right." They chose not to play the field while checking out a chance to see where the relationship might go. If the relationship "goes south" then they do not need to set up another profile. Another GREAT reason, is it still allows FRIENDS to still see your profile. I have made many friends on this site, and consider them all a gift from Our Heavenly Father. If you think they are HIDING from you, then you are probably correct! They have had their full of insecure people... This might sound like a rather tough statement, but it also is a very TRUTHFUL statement. As for me, I have pictures and stay visible. but that is MY choice.

the best reason for not having a picture is because of what happened to me last friday...some jerk captured my profile pic and put it as his and then created nasty blogs about me...think about it..your pic could end up anywhere on the net...I took mine down to protect myself..so think about it the next time you poke someone because they dont have a picture, ask them why and you might find a good reason and it might not have anything to do wiht being married.

Ive seen a lot of talk about the problem louise 63 mentioned.
That problem causes a lot of confusion and hard feelings in the forums.
I would like to suggest to everyone that if you see a posting from someone with a pic that looks like someone you know; but the posting seems way "out of character"; make sure that the poster is who you think it is before jumping to conclusions.
Another user can very easily steal a picture...this much is true...but they can not use the exact same name for their profile.
Always check the name closely before ASSuming you know who's talking.
If every one learns to do this...then pretty soon the a**holes will realize that this b/s is a waste of time and effort.
