Is it possible to, you know, like, turn them off altogether? 'Cuz people, you know, leave me questions and stuff, and I never know if I should answer them there or go answer them on their own Visitor Messages or what, and I get, like, all confused an' stuff, and no matter what I do I feel stupid and, like, it really doesn't seem to do anything and so I just ignore them, but then I feel all guilty and stuff and I can't seem to get it right no matter what I do, you know?

Yes, I plan to disable VM altogether. They really serve no purpose over PMs, and threads. If you want a one-to-one discussion: PM. If you want to discuss publicly: Threads.
VMs are a terrible source for unreported spam. :Kaleun_Mad:

I believe i did this months ago. I forgot what option i checked, but im pretty sure i disabled vistor messages in my profile. Haven't recieved any, nor seen any of the old ones (at least the ones i didn't delete myself), for a very long time now.

UserCP>Edit Options
There's a section for Visitor Messaging, if the box there is checked VM is enabled. Just uncheck it. I think it may be enabled by default but I've had mine turned off since I realized there was an option for it.
Of course if Neal's gonna disable it entirely, that's an even better fix, but you can still turn it off in the meantime.
@Neal: if you can also disable the "Talk like a 14 year old girl" option in Steve's profile, the rest of us will be eternally grateful. :O:

Do you have one that could randomly add gramatical/spelling errors to every post he, err, posts. :hmmm:
And take off the '20 seconds between searches', it was bad enough at 10 when I'd clicked the wrong thing, now my spam, sorry - post count will suffer.
No! Don't do that, he'd go into an infinite loop of mistake and correction! :dead:

Always remember: Frankie Valli sang 'Walk Like A Man' in a really high falsetto.

He keeps sending me pictures of his bass guitar. For some strange reason he thinks that's le sexxay. :hmmm: :O:

Sounds like you're getting better pics than I am. Or worse pics. One of the two.*
*I'm assuming, of course, that there are actually two.

Yeah, I am going to purge, then disable. I have to keep them enabled so anyone who wants to copy his VMs has a chance to, before I purge them. Scientifically precise battle plans are my thing, ya know. :arrgh!:

Hi Folks !
Since disappear the VM-Function (and in context the Tab in UserCP > Your Profile) I noticed, that I donīt see anymore the Total-Number of visitors (how many visitors my profile has) in profile, and the last 10 visitors with nickname !!! :hmmm: :down:
Now my question @ Neal or others: Is it possible to bring back this function please ? And have other User this notice too ?
Best regards,
