help with profile

[bigbullshedhunter]

I want to delete my profile. How do I do that

[bearpaw]

We don't delete profiles since many members change their minds and come back again in the future. This way your profile will be here if you decide to come back.

[bigbullshedhunter]

Thats retarded

[bobcat]

Why would you want to delete your profile? I'm confused.

If you just don't want to be on this site anymore, then don't log in.

[ICEMAN]

Thats retarded

This is one of the reasons why we do not delete profiles. 

[bigbullshedhunter]

Because mu pictures are popping up on other websites and I dnt want that. So I wanted to delete it os someone cld atleast kick me out. Plus no one puts anything on shed huntin anyways. Thats all im worried about. They can track with a computer where your picture was taken off your phone now.

1 - Turn off GPS tracking on your phone, it's an option.  If you don't know how, then Google search your phone model and find it that way.
2 - Just go back and delete your pics you've posted. I'm pretty sure on a forum based website it doesn't have the capability to read encoded GPS tagging, I could be wrong though. I know Facebook etc does so if you're posting pics there, then stop.

All this over shed hunting?? WOW!

I thought it was a little over the top until I understood his reasonings. Still doesn't need to flip out though just work smarter.

Smartphone users who don't realize or turn off the geocoding option in their phone really ARE broadcasting legitimate GPS locations of where pics are taken.. It's encoded in the metadata of the picture file. So imagine you're hunting your honey hole no one knows about and you get the buck of a lifetime - snap a pic - upload directly from your phone to Facebook or somewhere. You just broadcasted to the world exact coordinates where, and a time stamp of when, you harvested that buck. Then someone worth a little know-how will find that spot.

Asking for help from the retarded.   That wont get you very far Right?

No...No, it won't. What would be un-retarded(if that is a word, not that it matters) is to 1)do what Smossy's Girl said with Location services on your phone and 2)delete your pictures. You can do all of that yourself.

Just sayin'....

[boneaddict]

Wont do any good.   I already know where he shed hunts.

iPhone:
Settings ---> Privacy ----> Location services -off- 
Probably something similar for most smart phones.

[Buckmark]

............and many often wonder why many people don't post photos

ya guess I found out.  Pretty sad thats how people have to find spots. I guess im just gnna have to start rakin up first thing in the mornin.

[MtnMuley]

Yep, sad deal is right.  Good luck this season.

  People that say "if you don't show a pic it aint true" do not understand that saying that says more about them than the poster.  'liars expect lies' 'theives expect theft';
I do not remember where I heard that.

Pretty sure Bone was just kidding. I am VERY confident he knows where 100 times as many bucks and bulls are then most of us on here.

Aren't you glad your profile is still there? You would not have the opportunity to say all this stuff if we deleted your profile.

[bobcat]

Go here:  http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=13020

That is all the posts you have on this site. Go through and remove all the pictures. Problem solved.

I was thinking the same thing and I would bet that a few shed hunters saw that little rant and will use it as motivation to find some of his spots. lol

[dscubame]

I love the "how do I delete my profile" threads.  We have not had one for some time. 

No disrespect to the OP it is the responses I enjoy.  To the OP I too think you should be able to delete your own profile.

Yes I was kidding.   Much to the OPs expense.   We have evolved to this policy due to circumstances that have unfolded in the past.  A brief explanation that I am sure will still not make it clear to some why....

member x gets all bent out of shape, wants to take their ball and go play somewhere else in the playground, we oblige and delete their profile and then after a cool down period they want to come back.  The behavior often repeats.  Take ownership of what you post.   By not deleting everything, this sometimes thwarts some of the behavior  that some members might have if they have the option for cleaning the slate.  We also wanted to take in effect how this cheapens the involvement of what active members may have posted.    I am sorry you feel this is retarded.  Just log off and don't look back.  When you change your mind in three weeks after you find that awesome shed you want to brag about, you can log back in.
