Topic: E-mails are shown to Moderators

Hi there,

I've recently realized that moderators can see user's emails through viewtopic!
Even if a moderator is given no permission to edit a user profile from the administration, a Mod. still see the email by pointing at any "E-mail" link under the users info and the email appears on the status bar of the browser..

I think it's just about the 2nd code of e-mail permission in viewtopic.php to be cahnged to:

'<a href="misc.php?email='.$cur_post['poster_id'].'">'.$lang_common['E-mail'].'</a>';

thanx

Moved to PunBB Discussion
Not a bug, the moderators can see IPs as well: it's to help their moderation.

Thanks GOD.
That what I need..
In the cyber world, We (as admin) can not trust anyone, even Moderator.
So, the forum should disable IP view by Moderator.

Thank You smile

Re: E-mails are shown to Moderators

Its just ethical manner.
Sometimes, Admin did undercover as moderator or member (special purposes)..
And we dont want to show those IP to other Moderators. smile
