Earlier this year I made a suggestion stating a pretty simple fix: non registered users/lurkers shouldn’t be able able to use the search feature to comb through user posts/history on this site


Pretty straightforward. BP content has boomed in popularity and many people have been linking back to this site. Lurkers shouldn’t be able to freely and easily dig up old posts from users here. It’s a privacy nightmare.

Yet for some reason this change was never implemented

Now with the whole Clavicular debacle there are YouTubers like Turkey Tom are making hit pieces and 50% of his video is him on .org, using this feature to backtrack Posts from users in order to make YouTube videos that will net 1 million + views



@Master please for the love of God implement this change before it gets worse.

pretty much everything about this site.


no way lol, even tho they are all copy paste slop?

But yea i agree, should be changed
Yep it’s pretty much a dear diary retelling of Clavs posts. Not sure why this is even allowed this is bound to repeat

Yeah some real goobers run this thing

They expect people to pay $150 for a sparkly name instead of gate keeping some important features like this or BOTB threads

Would it really make a difference tho? Wouldn't have Turkey Tom just make an account and do the same thing he did? If people want to, they will find a way.

Nigga clavicular literally streams 90% of his life online saying equally insane shit, what difference does it make? Nobody cares about a random greycel
It's a basic internet law that if you post something retarded online it's there forever and you have to deal with the consequences lol

They should implement this 100% idk why they haven’t yet

It’s a baseline of accessibility. The ratio of users to lurkers is currently 1:15 that’s ridiculous. Also it’s unlikely he would even know that’s a feature just looking at the UI.
