 Reminder about Internet safety -- email addresses, photos and personal information!
We have gained a large number of new members, so it is time for a reminder about Internet safety and security.
I have noticed a trend toward members posting their email addresses in various threads. In addition to being a possible safety issue, various data miners can capture your email address and you can become the recipient of tons of unwanted SPAM!!
IF you decide to post you email in a public forum, the best way to do it is to write it out: boardmember at yahoo dot com. That way, a link will not automatically be generated and you won't be getting Internet "lunchmeat".
Other than that, just be careful what you say. This board and others like it are a public forum. You need to consider how much information you are willing to have out there. Do you want people to know your kids' names? The place you work? Other personal details? If not, then be careful what you post.
Have a safe and happy day!
