email addresses

[ludwig]

Ed - Can you clarify the policy on posting email addresses - I know there was a discussion about it but I'm not sure what conclusion was reached. Is it ok to use throwaway ones?

MOFC?
Google suggests 'Market Overton Free Church'.
Is there something kinky going on in Market Overton that I don't know about????

Saturday nights on AB?

Everything's a blur by then!

not sure that rule was in place when LiK joined, leastways I don't remember it myself.

aww Chris, Kingy is the butler, Mamya is Matron, the crossing of the moat awaits you :) xxxx

[Bobbisox]

well...can we or can't we ...?

I presume we take Chuck's advice.

//I think the trick is to put "Please contact me on this disposable address . . . ". That way the Ed can see that you've not posted your 'main' address. //

[naomi24]

Oops... that was Chris' advice - not Chuck's. Sorry Chris. :o)

[ChuckFickens]

I give fantastic advice....

apparently sometimes on threads I've not even participated in :)

[naomi24]

Ha ha! Clever!

The fact that this thread has re-appeared in my 'subscribed' has prompted me to add further comment.

IMO none of us should be able to publish any e/mail addresses within the columns of AB. Furthermore I feel that 'throw away' ones must cause a headache to Editorial staff when they are used by ABers who have been banned or suspended.

Hi Ron, How can email addresses (throw away or otherwise) be used here by people who are banned or suspended? Those people can't post.

[ChuckFickens]

Throw away addresses are how banned users keep re-registering with new names.

[naomi24]

But surely they can do that whether bona fide posters use them or not?

[ummmm]

Like hotmail?
