Secure? I think I'll come at this from two perspectives.

1. Hacking. I've never been hacked on this site, and I've never gotten spam on it. I noticed spam for a long time at SacBuzz, but I think SD or iSac got that fixed. I don't see it anymore.

2. Online abuse. I would object to some of the language a very few people use, particularly when directed at other members (i.e. "throwing your weight around"). But I'm not afraid that ANY people would directly come after me (or anyone else for that matter). This board has been around for so long that if that were going to happen, we'd already have heard about it, and that hasn't happened to the best of my knowledge. For the most part, we have a good crew here....

You’re safe here, buddy.

Serious question. What’s the most profane word you’ve used in the last week?

I'm insecure anywhere I go. Why should this place be any different?
