I'm saying this isn't some private haven. It started because some tried to make it a point people don't want to publicly state I'll take it in the BST forum which is actually protected outside of members if I'm not mistaken unlike the main board.
That's the reasoning behind wanting to use the DM vs the original post in BST to buy items, and how many want to stay incognito.
I was then linked a post Showing your collections/room off to others by if im not mistaken John. which was kind of funny. It pops up on Google, and so did everyone and everything posted. Even the people that wouldn't show people, just actually showed people. If your name, and location are on your posts along with your bio, what you collect, what your looking for, who you've had the pleasure of buying or selling to, and from.
Yes, we can be found out easily from people not even here on the board. I didn’t look for John, I said I could if that was my want, and desire. Its not, but many of us aren't hard to gather info on to those that want to.
John's last name isn't at this time listed, but a simple board search shows he's dodged the bullet so far, because the email I received has exactly what I posted, and what is bolded at the top of each page.
