Title: Sites use of your details
Post by: Admin aka Dan on September 21, 2003, 14:15:29

Hi,

Having popped over to the beeb board to see if the grass is greener, I saw a comment regarding privacy of email addresses.

I would like to say that I have absolutely no intention of ever selling, passing on, or releasing in any way email addresses from members of the board.

As a web user myself I fully understand peoples concerns, especially regarding spam.

Hope this sets some minds at ease.

Cheers

Admin

I don't get all this 'is this board as good as that board' stuff.  Am I missing something?  Isn't this the World Wide Web? Doesn't that give us the choice to go anywhere we want, when we want?  

Personally, I prefer this site because, apart from its obvious attributes like a responsive Administrator (long may it continue, Dan!) and 24/7 posting,  it attracts generally like minded allotment people, who are always ready to share a thought about anything loosely connected with our plots!

Gimmicks?!  :o I love 'em!   ::)

If I want to make a comment about Gardener's World - I'll go post on Aunties Board.  If I want to look something up about organic gardening I'll go to the HDRA website, if I want to talk allotments - I'll be here!

Cheers, Dan (if I may be informal?! :D)

I have a blocked senders list as long as the electoral role with spammers addresses on! So thank you for the reassurance. That's why I also like the email service on here and other sites I have visited. Also love the search facility - so thanks, Lish, for directing me here (sob sob....... I'd also like to thank......... :'()

Love, Palefire

Hi Jethro.  All you need to do is use the Instant Message facility.  Find a posting by the person you wish to contact and click on the name. The registration details appear, and at the bottom of the page is a space for sending that person a message. You can then send private messages back and forth with all the email and other addresses you wish without any of it going public on the boards
