I Remember Life Before the Internet

So this time I've actually enjoyed the new website! But I am concerned about people giving out their real info. Little tip for everyone new and old members nothing is what it seems always keep your real info safe that's why we have user names. For all we know that other person could be a mad man, a hacker or someone that just isn't very nice. I know for as for myself im a good kind person but please be careful who you give personal info too. All it takes is for someone to get your number or email and they look you up on everything or whatever. Im not preaching just noticing a lot of people giving our real names etc that's all x

are you sure it's their real whatever?

i truncate everything and only drop hints and i'm soo vague and uninteresting i've not been remembered anywhere and not even EP though i was there 10 yrs such.

what i'm worried about is catfish who have lifted images of people and claim to be those people then folks search the image in google find who it is then stalk attack that person who may not know a dam thing about whatever and that stalker will no reveal anything of why they're attacking the person(s) in question.


information helps.. one feels something is iffy and that person finds out more it's best to hold off on the triggered flaming and ask the person(s) in question if they know why their images and whatever are being used and showing up in such places.


it may save a life.

@sighmeupforthat yeah definitely, I've been a victim of online stalking etc so I do my best to advice and give tips etc to others. Especially as now police takes such things more seriously. But I do blog more on the subject. I've just noticed it an awful lot with the older users here

@Silentangel yeh the more help the better.

it's scary also those who don't take precautions and they got pictures of their family, friends and they act up in public commentary like in facebook and trending articles.

i hate seeing when there's an new story then people will look up the name in facebook, for example, then attack the wrong person but think it's who they're looking for all because that poor sucker has the same name.


the hell that some bring, a little knowledge and discipline would come in handy.

@sighmeupforthat aye agreed, big news companies aren't interested in this stuff because it won't get them big hits. I have tried a few times but their only interested in doom and gloom stories. I even looked into in app purchases etc oh my days the amount people spend on it makes you really think!
