Shannon! I'd been thinking about your previous post, and wondering if it would be creepy to send you a PM. You're one of my favorite YLFers to follow, even though (or because?) our styles and personalities are very different.
So glad you'll still be around ... I think. There's more to the concerns you expressed about participation in on-line forums; I hate to see reactions to legitimate issues dismissed as mere emotional sensitivity. Perhaps the forum's security will evolve with time.
I question my own involvement here, as limited as it is. Especially as writing-style recognition software improves and becomes more available, it's important to be aware of how much we share, where. I just erased a reply before posting it to the workplace-gossip thread, because it contained details of misinformation I'd "shared" with a gossipy HR person the first week I worked here, and anyone familiar with the situation would recognize me. I'm low-profile, "have nothing to hide" (nothing negative anyway), but still.
