Mod idea (and implementation)

What do people think of this mod idea?

If you don't fill out a certain profile field - say Income, etc, then you can't see that field in another member's profile.

So if Im too lazy to answer why should I be able to see theirs etc.
Eg. If I'm too shy to reveal how poor I am (and not fill in the Income field in my profile), why should I be able to see other member's income.
Of course not just this field, but all fields that are left blank.

Instead of seeing their field value, it will say something like "As your {field name) is not filled out you can not see this member's {field name}"

I added the lines to the /includes/languages/english/lang.custom.php

went to edit the member_profile.tpl, only had one (1) {break:field_value} line. Replace as stated in the read me file. Changed other value as well. Saved the files and then tried to bring up the site, got nothing, site wouldn't come up. Remove the values in both member_profile.tpl and lang.custom.php, the site came back online. Followed the readme file to the T, I'm sure your /<template name> is what template the site intends on using right or wrong?

Thanks

thank you idealists for your short tutorial, tnx to radioact for developing such a great mod. I would like to ask you something. I have several member types (coaches, players, agents etc...) and every of them have different custom fields. The problem is when I DO fill my agent`s CITY, player still can not see that field even if player have his City filled in. Label of City for agent is "cityofagent" and for player is "cityofplayer". Is there any way to connect (merge) that fields (labels) and make this MOD work when you have different custom fields for different member types? Thank you!

Ok, uploaded.
Please see:

I've made it now so that it reads like (if you haven't filled in your income field):
<em>You need to fill in your {field name} to see this</em>
