Ah no thats fine i see what you mean. Though i think it's okay to say your age, i mean, no one really is going to find out where you are by your age and username XD
I've delt with a creeper on the internet before. Though she was more just weird than anything (and luckly lived in a totally different contry... didn't stop her trying to get me over there, or get herself over here) *shudder*
But i've done actual pen-pal trade things over the internet, so nowerdays i'm not so bothered about saying where i live, i just don't give out my full address.
but as said earlier i know what you mean, to be honest i wouldn't recomend anyone under 16 giving out where they live. But cheers for looking out for everyones safty.
Just a question am i the only Astro fan from the UK here? ): I havn't seen anyone else from Britianland around here yet. Are we a rare breed or something?
gotta agree with you both on that posting your address or gomthing stupid like gps cordnats would be asking for trouble, but a city or larger geographical location doesn't hurt, for the longest time I had edmonton alberta canada as my location beside the posts, I changed it because I wanted to put somthing funny.
pluss the mods would boot off any creeps, this place seems safe, I for one feel cunfterbol makeing friends here, I don't think I have to wory about fackers and creeps here, not like some horror stories I have herd about public irc servers.
and the simple fact that astroboygf cares to let us know about the potental for trouble shows me that the people here are good.
