The FBI and NCIS - National Crime Information Center as well as most states, etc. use BIRTHDATE as a key point of information. My sis works for the JUSTICE DEPT. and I've learned this stuff...and a person with your name and birthdate and some other info MAY POSSIBLY be able to find out some personal info. Just having an age or range such as [20 to 30] is safer and it would identify any minors or old people to avoid. I don't want to talk to any minors other than simple things about skating and being skating fans... In other words I don't think (normal) ? older people would want to carry on any kind of conversation about anything with minors. Plus it makes people think you are weird or a pervert. On the other hand, I guess knowing someone is 17 might make a perv gravitate towards them. I don't mind giving basic info such as name, age, email, country, and city. The thing I worry about is all the SPAMMERS and the robots that go across sites and pull email addresses. Ever since I started posting to USFSA, this board, and a couple of others, I started getting tons of SPAM on my Hotmail account. Any thots on this....
