You have a very good point. As does Linstar. This is what I have to say on them.

Paging Minh and the other folks doing the Asylum project: I would like to submit a guest riff. by TheBefuddledBookworm on 2022-11-08 16:27:34 UTC Reply

I can't do email for privacy reasons, so I'm not sure how to submit this. Here is the link to the doc, though.

It has been submitted, and should be ready in a week or so. by Linstar on 2022-11-08 22:20:36 UTC Edited Reply

I will notify you once it’s up.

—and I’m not sure if it’s supposed to be parody or not. It’s so incoherent, hard to tell.

As to Nesh’s comment, I’ll just add that I have no less than three emails, for such reasons. And, to register for the Board, one needs to submit an email—one that Tomash and Delta Juliette, at least, have access to.

I think most of us have at least two email addresses, one for real-life stuff (may or may not include a real name) and one for Internet stuff (definitely doesn't include a real name). What's preventing you from having an anonymous email account with your Internet handle?

Thing is, my folks have access to my email, and dealing with more than one email account is too much for me, I fear. I like The Board as a means of communication, probably somewhat because of this. Does that make sense?

About the registering thing, I forgot about that. If I did use the contact form, I suppose I could just delete notifications/emails after I receive and read them. But would that be rude? I'm not sure.

Your parents have access to your email? by Neshomeh on 2022-11-08 22:09:23 UTC Reply

That's a, um, counterintuitive way for them to demonstrate the value of privacy?

Beside the point, though.

You can set up most email accounts to forward messages to a different account so you receive everything in one place, and Gmail will even let you send messages from a linked address, too—but then the challenge is to remember to switch the From field before hitting Send. I've accidentally doxxed myself a few times by forgetting. ^_^;

Still, the Board is obviously not a viable solution for communicating with non-PPCers. Perhaps switching entirely to an address that doesn't contain any personal information is something to consider at this time?

I mean, you do you. by Linstar on 2022-11-08 20:18:54 UTC Reply

But I’m not sure why it would be rude to delete notifications. I do it all the time.

—Ls has notified other Asylum members of this MST. Just to keep you informed.
