Privacy and you: how far will you let it go?

[ThreeWords]

I tell the truth, but never really bother with putting up that much, save for silly things in the bio and motto sections, etc

I am sometimes tempted to use a spare name, but I think of that as almost true, as I have grown the alias in many cases where I do not care to give my name to the point where I consider it my actual (though unofficial) second name

 

[Dragonearl]

I don't see the point in lying here of all places. I mean, if you can't be honest on the Escapist then what has the world come to?.

So yeah, I tell the truth here!.

 

[The_ModeRazor]

I dont lie, but dont put up more about myself than necessary.
Not like anyone gives a fuck, though.

 

[Kiefer13]

I only draw the line when it comes to my address. I really don't care about much of anything.

This. I'm fine with people knowing my full name, age, what I look like and my town of residence. It really doesn't bother me. I don't see the point of lying, especially on the internet. You'd have to be really bored to spend time trying to track me down in the real world, and honestly I'm not sure why you would bother.

 

[Gruthar]

I generally avoid giving out my phone number, email, and address. Not really because I'm concerned with identity theft, but more so because I fear the spam. I once made the mistake of not making the WHOIS on my site anonymous. Fortunately Google has good filters.

Beyond that, if someone wants to stalk me... more power to them? It would probably be quite boring and fruitless, but hey, whatever.

 

[XJ-0461]

I never give out any real personal information like phone numbers or stuff, and I rarely use my real name.

I'm willing to talk about any personal problems (read: relationship stuff) on here though.

 

[Agema]

I'd give an absolute minimum of information. The less you give, the less there is for unscrupulous people to exploit, and there's a lot of people on the internet looking for someone to take for a ride.

DELETED

 

[Holossus]

It depends. I mostly give no informaion.
So that people on forums couldn´t stereotype me.

 

[Nickolai77]

I reveal my name, country and region. I don't reveal where i actually live because people who live more than 30 miles away have never heard of the little town.

Obvilously don't reveal teliphone numbers or address, or any other direct contact details, unless it's internet messanger or something like that.

 

[Kuchinawa212]

Hey, it's the internet, and I'm a nobody. So what do you care anyway. So any personal story I have is fine by me

BUT I refuse pictures, I'm afraid they'd be photo shopped onto some naked body or something stupid like that
