So what are we? Chopped Liva? No one ever asked Agent 86 and I to swing via pm. :wink:

Seriously though, I've had some very nice pm's but nothing angry or threatening or propositiony. I do avoid politics like the plague on this forum, though. It's the surest way to rile someone and ruin a beautiful board, IMO.

I have to honestly wonder if in your case and Sherban's the fact that your avatars are pictures of "couples" entices more of these inquiries? Do you use the same image in other places?
I have received them on boards that I don't have a picture.
I did receive one from a guy on another board that was moving to STT and wanted to know if I would be available to show him around. I explained that I no longer lived on island and he asked me how far away I was because he had an unusually long......well, I will just leave it at that! :roll:

Privacy is dead. Living 2 miles from the George H Bush Center for Intelligence (CIA) we assume that everything that is on the net, telephone, cell phone, text message or anything else that uses electrons or radio waves is public knowledge. If you want to be private tell it to your dog when your out for a solo walk.

As for those special swinger pictures I've been receiving, your full name and home town are in your Facebook profile. Coming right back atcha.

Cheers, RickG

Yeah I think I have the same avatar over there and my wife is a cutie so maybe...the other thing I think was I posted a message that said something about looking for places to party, to me "party" means drink and dance, to them....well you know

I wasn't offended, just thought it was funny.
