Lately a couple guys have been sending me PMs through a new means of "visitor messages". Rather than going to my in box, I go to my user name where the messages show up. Problem with guys using these is that they are visible to anyone who goes on your page, and if you don't delete them they remain there for all to see. I checked on a couple other guys pages and sure enough, their visitors messages were there.

With information visible to anyone, it may be possible to have information you did not mean to post openly available to anyone who has managed to get onto the forum, even as a visitor. Things like when you will be away from your home (attending parades or overseas trips), your address, phone numbers etc.

Everyone should know that the visitors messages are not secure....I would recommend not to use them.
