Both are legitimate ways to contact someone you'd like to chat with outside of this forum.

I use trillian, so yes i can support multiple IM names, but u know what, i'd like to use email instead. I understand its to avoid "hookups" and "MOM" requests. But know what, i could just as easily do that on IM as email.

You're closing one contact method, yet embracing another?
Not having email links in your sig is protecting you from spammers...
