Yeah, that's a sensible take. There are a LOT of vindictive crazies on here. Just think of Mercer, or PAG. Those people would absolutely plaster your face all over the net if they got their grubby little hands on it and ruin lives and reputations without a second thought. I've shared quite a few views here that aren't deemed acceptable by polite society. Not to mention some of my adventures which, if they became known to those closest to me, would shock them and offend them.MrMan wrote: ↑September 24th, 2023, 2:22 pmOver the years, I've encountered a couple of people on the forum who seemed mentally deranged, and one seemed rather mean. I wouldn't want them having any personal information. But I've shared some thoughts here I'd rather have not have associated with my employment. Even being against child castration these days might cost you your job or just cause problems.Pixel--Dude wrote: ↑September 24th, 2023, 4:54 amSame here. I wouldn't do that. I don't care if people don't believe my girlfriend exists. I have zero investment in proving anything to anyone.
It's also funny how the people who cry about "requiring proof" the most tend to be trolls, in 99% of cases. Never a serious, established member. Because to a serious established and respectable member, sharing a picture is not something I am opposed to doing. To a troll, however, I never would. The troll is free to believe or disbelieve what he wants. When all is said and done, his opinion is as meaningless as his existence.
