How safe is this BOARD? Am I paranoid..

[SeedKing72]

This is kind of a stupid question.. But is there anyway the LAW could use this board against us.. I mean we post pics, I even see people post their email address and if you think Yahoo mail is really safe you would be fooling yourself. Now I could be paranoid, and its not like I am growing tons to sell.... but if I could get your IP address, which the webserver this is sitting on could easily do, I could probably find out your ISP, and if I had the law on my side, I could probably get some info from them.. now this all sounds kinda crazy and I hope I am being stupid, but if we were using this board to commit terrorist activities, I gurantee they would find a way to get to us.. What are the failsafes of this board, hopefully the server is in a MJ friendly country..I am not saying this is all fact.. I am just wondering.. with my paranoid mind..

That is completly crazy and i just burned my one and only plant. I am not taking any chances. I cant believe that users information isn't safeguarded better than that. I also took down my lights and will be mounting them in the garage for more light for my work bench. This will also be my last post. Goodluck to all of you who decide to take a chance.

They really don't have that much info. I gave nothing but my yahoo account, and I would have rather not gave them that, all the info on my yahoo account is fake too. Perhaps were being a little paranoid, but hey anything could happen

If youre all so paranoid about using a forum.

I suggest its time to create a HUSHMAIL.com account and quit whining for these boards are ment to help and serve you. Do not talk down to the forum for it could bit ya in the ass for non of us are narcs.

I hear ya, but I am not talking down the board.. I am just asking questions, no one is whining.. just wondering.. It never hurts to have dialouge.. I love this board. if you notice my # of post, but its always safe... Thanks for the hushmail idea.. I will look into that..

If ya aint talkn down to the board, theres no need for this thread asking if this forum is unsafe.

If youre using the PROPER shit , you will always be safe.

-Mind over matter.

Okay, you see this is the information we need, what is the proper shit? Dude I'm not trying to be a jerk, I am just trying to do everything I can possibly do to be safe.. Thats all.. It never hurts to ask a question.. NEVER...
