Invisible mode / confidentiality options

Post by Go_Benoit »

Hello,


surprisingly seeing that it seems not possible to be invisible while connected on the site, very strange: no option to prevent your friends to see that you are connected, that you added this one or this one to your friends list, or that you won at that game.

Is there any way to do it currently? If not, is it in the dev pipe? seems to be basic functions...

Thanks, cheers,
B.

Not possible currently. No ETA for that feature announced (as with any other feature actually)

I’m with you, I can’t see why this can’t be a feature of. Ring a premium member ?

Premium Membership should have privacy options.

Companies around the world are stepping up security, it's time this one did also.

This is basically the highest voted for bug: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=17208

Obviously with the number of votes it has, lots of votes doesn't automatically lead to implementation but you can still add your vote to it.

I strongly disagree that privacy should be a premium feature.
IMO, everyone should be able to get some privacy, and it should be the default option.
