Site Policies

Please observe the terms of the Content Policy. Additionally, please do not post confidential or sensitive personal information on this website. Because most of the membership information in the user profile is optional, users are welcome to withhold any information they prefer to keep to themselves. On the other hand, most of the information entered in a user profile (except the email address, which stays private) will be available to the rest of the user community and to the public, so only post what you want others to see.

Minimizing Risks While Shopping Online

While some people now do the majority of their shopping online, others are still hesitant to trust the Internet with their financial information. My Dad would fall into the latter category, but he recently asked me about opening a credit account to shop online. I sent him a message that turned into a rather lengthy tutorial about safe shopping online. I have modified the text of that message and posted it here, in addition to links to the sites I mentioned. I have personally purchased items from the retailers listed, and would recommend them to others.

The easiest way to keep the majority of your income safe would probably be to open a checking account with your bank that you will use exclusively for online transactions. This is not absolute fraud protection, but it will mitigate the amount of damage incurred by things like credit card theft.

While we will try to maintain a forum that is as open as possible to the exchange and discussion of ideas, we do have a few guidelines that we request you adhere to. Please remember that this site is being offered at a fairly substantial personal expense, and that it has but one administrator/web master/owner right now. With that in mind, we reserve the right to edit, move or remove any material posted on this site for any reason without necessarily providing an explanation. We also reserve the right to approve, deny or revoke memberships as we see fit, also without explanation. For the most part, we will try not to exercise these rights, and if we do, we will try to provide a reasonable explanation. Many of the things that would call for the red pen or boot someone from the site are detailed in the list below. Also check the Privacy Policy for more information.
