I'm just saying email addresses should be private, to everyone, reguard; it should be considered a privacy issue none the less (I mean, i have no problem staffing at sites, but don't want *my* email sent to everyone)...
And look at it this way; what if your mods don't always agree? you're looking at giving users who hate each other a way to reach each other outside of your forums...
Or how about users that are underage and staff? It's a coppa issue there to provide their contact information to others...
