Promoting safety
Dear Members,
This is just a message urging caution.
We are posting this message because some of you have recently shared personal contact information with another user on the discussion board or in chat.
We have a rule in place prohibiting this within the first 3 months of being on MaleSurvivor.org, and we caution against this action until you have gotten to know people, to protect yourself from the possibility of unsafe interaction off-site.
Experience tells us that it's better for new site users to get used to the site on its public platforms for a while before they take their communications off-site, get to know who's who and then decide if you feel safe going off-site with specific people.
Remember that once you have given up your personal contact information it can't be taken back, and you have no control over how much further the contact goes or what is done with this information.
Also, we cannot offer support or intervention for incidents that take place off-site.
We just wish to advise caution until you all are more familiar with the site and our community.
Please don't hesitate to contact any of the moderators if you have any questions, or you may respond to this post directly.
Regards,
The Moderator Team
