Because the folks without them complained about seeing them so Goaty made them visible to fellow icon holders only. That doesn't sound like a thing... |

We had some LE members here that also didn't want to have issues on the EE and preferred to stay anonymous.

Quote HistoryQuoted: iirc there were some minor grumblings about the military icons. Down right bitch fest about the LE ones. 
It just seems more like human nature that the Icon holders would be the ones pushing the removal just so it didn't bring any attention VS the ones seeing them pushing for them to be removed. Which is probably why so many question the reason you give. |

Because they're the only ones professional enough to view the icons.
If a mere civilian were to view the icon it would smash them in their feels. |

The funny part was the month or two between when they made them invisible but still skipped a line where they would be in the format. So if you saw someone that had a clear space directly below the picture you knew they had the hidden icon. Extorris hit me with the buzz killington meme for pointing that one out once. Whoops.

What if they prefer to talk to other officers about something in the secure forum and not GD or BOTS? To gain access to the secure LEO forum you must fulfill the requirements. The icon comes with that. It's awork around for a few issues that popped up.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I don't know the percentages but lots of folks who seem to be cops don't have the icon. Most agencies that have more than six members have policies that bar you from a.) making copes of your ID cards, and b.) using your email for non-official business. The requirement to risk IA exposure probably discourages some people. |
