This would allow us to group together privacy settings for users. Currently, I would want the 'Hide me From Feed' option to be in there. Other options could be:

  • Only Allow Friends to Comment on Profile
  • Do not allow people to add me as friends
  • Allow only friends to see my profile
  • Allow only friends to see my list

etc etc...

Update - May 23, 2014 - I've updated the title on this to reflect what this issue should really be about. Currently, ​we've got a privacy tab on the edit profile page, but we need to figure out the various privacy settings we'd like to offer our users.

I like this idea. It keeps the profile more private and personal.

Maybe add a 'block' list too? I would say that Only allow friends to comment on profile would take care of that but sometimes I like random comments you can get from people. lol

@zerophoenix I think that's actually another good idea, a block list. We could have a button on users profiles that shows for people logged in which would allow them to block them as well as a text box under the privacy tab which lists blocked people and where they can just add more.

Alright, it's been a while since this issue has been updated. I want to use this comment to put together a more complete list of what things we should include in privacy settings:

  • Profile Comments - Everyone, Friends Only, No One
  • Friend Adding - Everyone, No One
  • Profile Viewing - Everyone, Friends Only, No One
  • List Viewing - Everyone, Friends Only, No One
  • Favorites Viewing - Everyone, Friends Only, No One
  • Wish List Viewing - Everyone, Friends Only, No One
  • Blogs - Everyone, Friends Only, No One

Of course there could always be more options so I am open to suggestions.

Thanks.

@vglist This was previously an option but removed as this is a social site and we want people to be able to find others playing and enjoying the same games. We will not be adding this back in.
