 * Please help. How do I stop my users appearing in google search?? For example ‘
   jenflowermoon’ (me) appears number 5 on google 1st page. I’ve just had an irate
   member of my site asking me to remove him immediately. I had no idea that members
   would appear through a search. How do I stop this?
 * Thanks so much

 * I looked at your privacy policy and you covered this there somewhat:
 * Sections 6.2, 6.3, and 8.6 so you did warn them if you mentioned the privacy 
   policy during sign up. I’m no lawyer though… you probably should consult one 
   but you can tell your complaining users about their actions creating an acknowledgment
   of the agreement.
 * See this article for more info on this subject…

 * A search engine might discover your users. You might use no-follow robots rules
   and no follow links but those are voluntary on the part of the search engines._**
   They are more suggestion than command!**_
 * The best way to deal with a complaining user is to delete them or the content
   they are suggesting while warning them that deleting their user data might limit
   their use of the site in the future!
