I am curious as to why a lot of the members in this comunity are so fearful of other members finding out who they are. What is it about this forum that makes everyone so afraid of revealing there real names? Did something happen in the past that fuels this paranoia?
If I wanted to commit identity theft I sure as hell would not choose to pick someone in this forum. It would be to easy to narrow it down to who it was from a legal standpoint. Or is it because this community is a safe place for some members to come and say what they want without the fear of having to answer to anyone for it? I can understand that. I can see some people who get stressed out at work or at home and cant say what they wish they could out of fear of the consequences. Having a place to get it out of your system would be a relief to some.
I know millions of people every day share personal info online to strangers via Facebook or other similar sites and never have any worries of people hunting them down or having there identity stolen and misused.
I'm just curious as to why it is so taboo in here and not elsewhere. I havn't given my name because of the fact that nobody has asked.
