Including posts in email notifications
Game and Watch Forever:
The idea of the feature is nice and could be useful for the less personal parts of the forum. If it were possible to just turn off for Relate only, that'd be the ideal solution, but since it sounds like it's all-or-nothing, I'd rather sacrifice it so that people continue to feel like this is as safe a space as we can make it.
Carl-E:
Seconded.
ankhtahr:
Yep, in relate it can be kinda bad. I sometimes post something I feel I might freak out about and promptly delete again. If somebody read it in the short time it was up, well, bad luck for me, but having it sent to people by email is bad in such cases.
Masterpiece:
Are e-mails really that insecure? And besides, isn't everything we post already kind of in the public domain. I mean sure, the relate forum is private, but it's only private until somebody logs in, which, quite frankly, isn't that big of a task.
Method of Madness:
I wish I knew about this before, but I'm glad it's come out now so we can (hopefully) be rid of it.
Masterpiece, it's not really a matter of e-mail security for me, it's a matter of posts not being able to be meaningfully changed or deleted. Yes, someone could still screengrab or copy the post, but why have that happen automatically? Also how is opening the forum at all an inconvenience?
