I’m sorry for your troubles, Webzcas. I hope you get this sorted out soon.

I am also very leery of people who ARE members yet have themselves set as “Hidden” from other members. It makes you wonder WHY? Why dont they want other members to know they are around? What are they hiding?I totally agree. Can that function be disabled?
Regarding links — to be honest, I am a bit leery of posting URLs to any of my new sites. I have this feeling that once I post the links, some evil lurker here will immediatly go and scrape the new site, or copy the layout, or Google-bowl it, or something…. Does anyone else think this way, or I am just being paranoid?
