Dear All,
A member has recently made us aware that her diary had been seen by someone in real life that she would prefer not to have seen it. Therefore we thought we would just issue a reminder to everyone that what you say here is available for all to see. If you wish to retain anonymity/privacy then please be careful about how much you disclose about yourselves in your posts and in your profile.
Even if your diary is in the Bronze section, this is still accessible with 100 posts which doesnt take too long to achieve. Although it is not "googleable" if it is in Bronze, members with 100 posts can access it freely. The mods are currently looking at introducing some slightly more private diary areas now that some members post counts are in the 1000's.
Please also remember that information you read here, particularly in someone elses diary is not yours to share. One members privacy has been severely compromised because either someone has registered as a member to read her diary, or because an existing member has printed another members diary and given it to a 3rd party. Whilst there is nothing we can do to stop that, and no rules have been broken, it has left someone worried about sharing information for fear of who may see it.
Best wishes
The Moderation Team
