I think it's pretty difficult for someone we know to find us if they're looking for a way to trash us, unless, of course, we inadvertently tell them where we are. I've done that not realizing that the person would actually join this MB and stalk me! She still reads what I post, but at this point, I don't care very much anymore.

As for someone Googling my name, all I could find a few months ago is an article I wrote for the now defunct newsletter.

Someone on another thread said that it now takes two clicks of two different links to find us. Most people won't do that.

What bothers me more than anything is when you tell someone something in confidence in a PM and in just a few, short seconds it appears on the board minus the name. For some people, it doesn't take long to add 2+2 and they realize what's going on.

This has happened to me, too. It's aggravating, to say the least and triggering to the point of influencing my 3D life, at most. To me, that's playing dirty pool. I won't stand for it.
