Why does everyone keep mentioning that, seriously who's honest when fill out account info.
I am truly the age (24) that you can see to the left of this post where my avatar and the cumulative number of posts that I have made in my existence on WrongPlanet are.
Not everyone here on WrongPlanet kids about their age.
It`s not simply a matter of joking, it`s a bad idea putting your personal info into an account like that. It puts you at risk of identity theft.
If there is some way to steal my identity with my wrongplanet screen name, my age, and the state I live in please tell me, because I don't want my identity stolen, however (and I apologize for this), I just can't believe it without further explanation.
No but wrongplanet isn`t the only site I use.
Neither is it yours, as a rule I don`t take chances.
With someones full name, date of birth, and address all one has to do is call your cell phone company.
It can be rather easy to do some damage to a person. Something as simple as putting stuff in your name, or more involved getting access to any accounts you may have, with power company etc.
