Just for the record, the wasn't the only quote, nor the whole post, nor the only statement by vb.org staff on this matter.

I do accept the decision, just don't know which of the reasons stated is the real reason, if any. First was privacy, then security, then implementation.

You have to realise that it's best not to give a reason, than argue different reasons, if you have already made a decision, and aren't open to other views.


------------------ Message auto-merged ---

O.k., I hope no one considers this further arguing I just thought this is a new option, that may remove some of the concerns.

If a member has a concerns about privacy and/or security, they do have a simple option. They can leave the home page field in their profile empty

This way, even if their username shows up as having installed a specific hack, no one knows their home page or forum, so the information would be useless, and does not present any concerns for privacy or security.
