Reminder about Internet safety -- email addresses, photos and personal information!

[nicolestorlie]

SO I am a tremendous dork for using my email as my username!! Any way for me to change it now without re-registering?

Wow I never thought about saying "I'm going on vacation" because people I have traded with have my address. Good point.

Just a friendly bump for the many new people on the site.

Please give some thought to the things that you post-- including pictures in posts and avatars!

HCW tries its best to be a family-friendly site, but you must remember that there are all kinds of creeps out there and this is a public board!

So be careful about how much personal info you put in your posts-- photos of yourself or your kids, descriptions that could lead people to figure out where you live or work, etc.

It's a jungle out there, and we want everyone to stay safe!!!

Also would like to add in regards to posting pics. Members like to share pics of their holiday decorations, family, homes, etc. Be mindful of what you post & make sure that pics do not include the following: vehicles with tag #'s, #'s on Mail Boxes, #'s of house address, items within your home that may reveal personal info.
