Don't want to be rude or offend anyone, but I'm just gonna say it...

Original post by PeteysBride

This is a public forum ladies. A VERY public forum as we found out with poor Milana and MJDoc. so if you are hesitant at all about posting anything that you feel might come back to bite you in the butt, whether it be at your job, your personal life, etc, DO NOT POST IT. Period!

People are gettign anxious about their writings and want to edit all their old posts but once you start a thread and others jump in then it needs to really become a mountain cause others have to spend time going back and editing too.

I totally understand some of us have higher profile lives and all of that, but then please use judgement and dont post things that might come back to you. Most of us have our pics up in our profiles and at least our first names, so its ot that hard for people to make the connection if LIW comes up with google searches. i find wacky things on people all the time cause the net is a HUGE scary place now.

I have posted a lot of wackadoo stuff because I dont feel any of it will harm me in the future. But if I had any hesitations, I just wouldnt post it.

In poor Milana and Mel's case, they were attacked without ryme or reason, simply it seems, for being stunning brides and thats bull. Anyone that tracks us down and sits here and tears us apart for anything we write is a cretin.

HOWEVER, that said, we all KNOW there are hideous people out there so if you think a post with sexual content or something about your family, a friend, someone ya know etc, might cuae you grief if others in your everyday life knew about it. DONT POST IT.

That's all...like I said, I don't want to offend ANYONE so I am making this a broad generalization and including myself in there too, cause sometimes I forget that this IS the net because I feel so warm and cozy with most of the ladies here. But I really think people need to start making some better judgement calls. Actions DO have consequences people and we need to try and keep that in mind so we can protect ourselves.Too many wackadoos out there and not all are the good kind like us.

its sad that becuase of the internet bully hasn't stopped at 13, it continues with adults now which before the days of the internet would have never happened. my MIL says the internet is going to bring us all down!

When I was a teenager, I was stalked by some guy and he would call and tell me he would see me in my pool swimming, and what i was wearing and he also told me he saw me at the beach at night for a dare program (mind you cops run the damn thing) and it turns out it was some creep that i had met on aol in a game room!! somehow he found me and was watching me. people are freakin crazy. Mind you since then, I'm scared of everyone!



Crap I dont blame you! I'd be peeing pickles. Some weirdo mofos out there.

Guys-I just want to say this thread isn't emant to be offensive to anyone. if anyone took it that way, I do apologize but it was more of a gentle reminder to be careful cause we ALL do it. I used to post sh*t like days DH was away which I realize was really stupid. We just get comfortable and forget. Thats all this was.

that's why I don't post our first names... I'll only sign it on an FM

I also avoid posting very personal stuff... anything I wouldn't want the in-laws to know about does not get posted online

You are right. I just deleted all of my albums. I want to share my pics, but I have to be realistic. I represent teens who know how to google people. I don't need people following me around, knowing about my ring size, etc.

That said WE should all be careful!!!
