quote:personal preference only, no other reason. it just creeps me out, that within seconds of posting something, you can pick a key word and search it and it's on Google.
I think you will find that you cannot delete the thread yourself. Once another member posts to a thread, it can only be deleted by someone with elevated privileges.
If having Google pick up your posts is bothersome, then I don't know how you can participate on ANY chat board, or public forum.
I try to remember that everything on the internet is public before I hit transmit on anything I write.
The same goes for email.
Once you hit transmit, the recipient has complete control, and could even accidentally pass on something that shouldn't be shared. I've seen it happen more than once.
