I think that GC should incorperate a gTalk ID for our profiles(like there is for ICQ,MSN,AIM,YIM)... Who's with me?!

I agree. I believe this has been mentioned a time or two before, somewhere. PM Darren and/or Intelliot asking them.

Yeah, it has been mentioned before. But I don't think they want to display any IM addresses, since the incident a little while back,
where some phisher was impersonating a GC admin on Messenger.

I think it would be safe to start gradually reshowing IM information, as long as we make sure and educate all of our members about phishing and online identity theft prevention.

If you are stupid enough to give someone you handle and pass... You need to make sure all your information is safe, by giving your computer to me O_O and never, ever, ever, buying or obtaining another one...

ok, I'll PM Darren AND Intelliot asking about it!
[edit]
OK, I PMed them... Hope I get my way o_O

Code:
-Darren and Intelliot will recieve this same message-

I feel that we should include IM handles back in profiles, and allow gTalk to be one of them! however, I also think we should inform people that an admin/moderator, would never ask for their handle/email/password, no matter what! This is just my humble oppinion O_O

I think a lot of people would like to have that back, but there has to be a disclaimer where it absolutely can't be missed. Maybe right on the Profile page, so that people will have to see it, before they enter their own PM addresses.

I'd also suggest that when GC gets a 'confirmation' query, when someone has registered for a service using "Googlecommunity.com"; that the address be confirmed, taken possession of, and the password changed immediately.

But, back to the original question. Any chance that a Google Talk ID will be added?

Yeah I guess something like that could be used.

As for the GTalk ID it's not that hard to add and it's been mentioned before, I've already seen other forums with it so I dont see why not!
