Profile Posts are not private, or, sharing your details with the entire internet

It has come to attention that some people do not understand how to send or reply to Private Messages (Start conversation), and so are sharing email addresses, PayPal addresses and home street addresses using Profile Posts.

The contents of Profile Posts are visible to anyone on the internet! You do not need a registered forum membership to read Profile Posts.

On the basis that no one would choose to be that reckless with their personal data on purpose, I have removed or deleted every occurrence that has been reported. However, this is not something that staff here can be relied on to catch, it’s your data, privacy and identity and you need to look after it.

If you want to start a private conversation with someone, use “Start Conversation”.

If you want to read or reply, click the envelope symbol at upper right of screen, in the green bar.
