Hi Doogle and Plates,

Many thanks for your comments. JumbleTown Admin is very conscious of the fact that some Members may not wish to put their contact details on the Public Forum. After all, why carry out your private business in a public way if there is a means to do otherwise? That is why we recommend that Members use the PM (Private Message) system, especially when they are passing on contact details.

How to send a PM (Private Message):

Some Members may wish to put their contact details up on the Public Forum -- it is a choice they make in the belief that it will speed up the Giving and Taking process. Takers, I believe, find readily visible contact details more convenient; most Givers, it seems, prefer the PM system. JumbleTown Admin provides the twin-options of the Public Forum and the PM system to give people a choice.

We do, however, recommend that JumbleTowners remove Public Forum contact details after an item has been Taken. As it happens, very few people put up their actual address on the Public Forum. If they do, and forget to remove it after an item has been passed on, JumbleTown Admin removes the details.

Regards
Chris P
