This forum used to be a closed society where only members can see details and hence there was an element of trust.

Then admin decided to open it up to be able to be searched by Google so the annoying adverts on every thread could reach a greater audience.

There was no consultation to members who posted their reports thinking their reports were secure. After an uproar from members all old reports were moved to the archive section which is not searchable by search engines.

Make sure your thread titles are not to detailed. I had a report where the thread title was the bar name, city and girls name. Turns out some guy found it by doing a search on the girl. Guess he found out his potential new girlfriend wasn't a choir girl.

I actually think this is the main reason the forum isn't as busy now as there is little security to our posts. I am sure most of us are married or have a girlfriend and this hobby is secret.

Always put an RA on your post so only member can read it.
