words of wisdom and warning

Howdy, y'all.

We're pleased at FootBuddies that so many men are now taking advantage of the FootBuddies HookUps board to make contact with other men.


Some sage advice, if you'll listen.

• Don't post your phone number here. You are aware that thousands of strangers --- some of them not so nice people --- will now have a vital piece of your personal information, and can use it for unsavory purposes (e.g. 'stalking')?

• Don't post your e-mail address here. Even with the improved security systems we have in place, spambots abound. One variety, called 'address harvesters', scan all posts, looking for e-mail addresses. These are collected and sold to unscrupulous companies who will try to sell you prescription drugs, penis enlargement pills, and other useless items. And you'll never be free from the spam, again.

• In your ad, direct all replies to your private message box here. Do you really want the thousands of readers here to know your personal business? I can tell you our members don't want to hear it.

Have fun here, but be smart, be safe!
