In the next days we are going to change or check:
1. Forum rules will be completed and always easily accessible, e.g. we add: " If you use third parties personal info (like e-mail or phone number) make shure this person has agreed with it. If you recommend a company this can be typically assumed as they want to be promoted. If talking about private persons, please ask him first. "
2. Check boxes in Forum user profiles will be added where the user can accept that other forum users are allowed to use certain of his personal info in this forum like his name or his phone number or his e-mail. So at least for forum members it is easy to accept that you can write "call xy under 1234" or "mail to xy to ask him"
3. there is already an option in posting: the symbol "letter with envelope" converts an email address into an image, so if you give an email adress using this, it will be an image, like
and not as easy for a computer to use it to send spam.
4. have a look e.g. at the bentley drivers club forum http://www.bdcl.org (forum rules..) so we should not make life to complicated.
5. This is not a higly secured secret forum, it is public!
