Hi Irene, It's a shame that you're leaving the site, but I agree with you 100% that we shouldn't have to untick this stupid little box to keep things private. It should be the other way round. To be honest Irene, I don't think they care much about what we think. I've mailed them a few times about this and other things, but I've rarely had an acknowledgement from them, let alone a sensible answer! I don't mind people viewing my tree if I think we have a connection, but I don't want all and sundry being able to take a peek - mind you, it would take them an age to find their way around mine! It's a complicated tree at the best of times, and at the worst even I get lost! Lots of luck and best wishes for the future Irene, Carole |

Sorry you are leaving Irene, I understand your reason. If you do all the work on your tree it should not be available to anyone other than who you decide to see it. I expect a lot of people will leave once their subscriptions are due because of this reason. I wish you all the very best for the future and I know your leaving will be a great loss to the board. Good Luck Irene |

Well my subs are due but I am not renewing. Sorry I won't be around to help anymore I have enjoyed it. And I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all of you who have helped me I hope I have returned your help to others in return. I am leaving because I don't agree with the policy that everyone can view each others tree. The change so that everyone you contact or who contacts you can view each others tree I think is wrong. If you think after some discussions that there is a genuine family connection then I think it should be up to us to let them view our tree. The policy where you have to remember to untick the box in my opinion is wrong. I wish you all the best of luck in your future hunting. I am off following other pass members to the other boards which are Free. Maybe if in the future this policy was to change then I just may be back. Irene |
