g.day all, I noticed that a number of Polk members profile have some or nothing regarding interests,hobbies,etc, and also many do not allow the abillity to email them direct. Is there a reason for this or am I missing? something
I have had the pleasure of many emails from fellow polkies and all have been great..Kind Regards Fabian

Well one main reason for hiding your email address is to prevent spam. Spam "bots" often troll websites like this and grab *@*.* or whatever... meaning it grabs any email address and instantly adds it to a spam list.
Thats the reason I have mine hid.

Yah, but the first message I get I just block them. Oh, the bottle has been to me, my closes friend, my worse enemy!

Calm your jets man.
We offer that option here so people can do it if they please, but I find that the amount of "**** spam" I get as a reward for filling in my email address everywhere is completely annoying (altho, somewhat strangely interesting as well...).
If you wanna contact someone, simply pop a post on the thread and ask them to email you offline (outside the forum, as I did to you... Any news on that 12v front I asked you about?).
