Common decency with PMs
Submitted by carnarvonite on Mon, 2013-03-25 18:32
Had a fair heap of PMs lately and I would think it was common decency when you are asking someones advice on fishing hints, spots or whatever to at least put your christian name on it so one has an idea who he's dealing with instead of his site name.
Like most of the long time members we have got to know who everyone is over time though having never met face to face, we still have the decency to sign each message but it seems some of the newer ones like to keep sectrets, so please do the righty and put a name on you messages.

Yeah your right john, i
Yeah your right john, i changed my username here about 18 months back as i use FW quite a bit and thought transparency would be better.
Got no problem with those who want anonymity but their opinions on the more personal, important or controversial issues dont carry as much weight with me
Give a man a mask, and he'll show you his true face...
The older you get the more you realize that no one has a f++king clue what they're doing.
Everyone's just winging it.

when I changed I put a post up with the new username and then had it deleted after a week just so those that mattered would know.

yep
Good point John.
If you expect someone to respond to you, especially when asking for information, ensure you do it in the right fashion - please, thankyou's, cheers, etc etc. Your the one requesting the information, if you want a quality answer, do it politely and spend some time writing it out rather than text talking.
On that note, if anyone receives PM's which you are offended by, contains inappropriate content, is pointing you to another website etc etc then please let me know via PM or email as soon as possible :
Cheers,
Adam
