I just googled my site, & game back with masses of information regarding myself & my membership to Trap17 - not my site. I'm horrified, is there anyway this can be prevented? & can you please at least delete this page, as soon as possible!

Thankyou

That has happened to me as well.

Search engines should be blocked from viewing the applications. It's too dangerous to be giving these details out.

That's why is better not to give your real information about yourself.

Personaly, i am not afraid to, i give my personal information because i have nothing to hide, plus, i always act and say the same in virtual and real worlds.

Anyway, i understand your point, and i respect it, but be smarter next time, if you know what i mean.

Trap17 can block those pages from Search Engines if they want using the robots.txt ... If this REALLY bothers you, try talking to BuffaloHelp or OpaQuE about this, and they can block these pages from search engines and bots!

I see your point, but to be fair I dont lie when I join sites like this, & as a rule you wouldnt expect details like that to be splashed all over google.

i suppose u have to say by by to your mail

Admins of this forum must prevent this immediately

Well, we'll look into the matter and lets see what comes out after I'll discuss it with other mods and admins. we respect security of the information of the users. Yes, as other members said that it can be definitely blocked, but Mjay06, page can't be deleted, however we'll try to find out the alternate to that.

Would it be possible to delete that particular thread? It appears to be my hosting application.

Thanks

I think the applications are kept only to keep the information in a place where you can go back to it in case you lost it on your computer or forgot to save it or something. This saves the admins time from having to pull everything up if you forgot everything. Maybe I'm wrong but I guess maybe it should be blocked.

Hey the same thing happened to me, but i requested BuffaloHELP and he deleted my info

See have a look at mine:
http://www.trap17.co...topic=37665&hl=

I just PMed BufaloHELP..and he deleted it for me. but this could cause a problem...everyone wants to delete the info.

They could make a script where when the application is approved that topic would go hidden can only be viewed by admins. This is just my idea
