I’m a bit confused about this, I suspect (hope?) it’s a bug because it seems quite bad!

One of my staff members noticed that if you google for his email address, our forum’s about page comes up. If you look at the google cached version it shows this (I’ve blacked out email addresses but each black blob is the user’s email address):

I’ve checked the actual about page though ([https://forum.skysaga.com/about](https://forum.skysaga.com/about)) and it doesn’t seem to contain that information anywhere.

Does anyone have any idea how Google got these email addresses and how to prevent it happening in future?

Cheers 🙂
