I made a decision to do so as I believe people should know who they are dealing with.
No one else needs to reveal anything that they don't want though and can stay hidden behind an alias if they want.
How Many Reveal Themselves Totally On This Board?

Well now! Reveal myself? Isn't there a law against public indecency? Oh, I did post my family history and have never worried about identifying who I am and where I live. So far, no drive-by shootings from four door sedans with book bags in the back windows...yet!

Well, I've never posted a naked picture of myself (board heaves collective sigh of relief) if that's what you mean.
I reveal facts about myself, here and there, so that I don't end up tripping myself up in case jws who know me scour these pages. To get a detailed picture of who I am, one would need to go back and read my 3370 plus posts, plus the 1000 posts I made prior to getting exclusive rights on my username.
What I do reveal about myself is true (okay, I have no exclusive rights on my username), and though I don't reveal myself "totally" I do so truthfully.

LMAO @ FMZ!!! That's basically my attitude too! I don't have anything to hide, really. And, if I did, someone would find out, somehow, someway, so, I figure throw it out there and let the s**t hit the fan and land whereever it wants............I'll deal with it then.

I don't let on much about me. I'm trying to fade(so far successfully). I don't need some lurking do-gooder dub to blow my cover.
I appreciate those that tell what they can about themselves. I value the experiences that I hear from others who have gone through some terrible things because of the WTS. I hope, in my own small way, that I can encourage others who are leaving or are trying to leave in my rather unspecific experiences and things learned along the way.
Don't take this the wrong way, but I don't come here for friendship or companionship. I do come here for support or to help support others. In doing that I feel like I have come to know some different ones and can relate to them because of going through similar circumstances. I feel for them and hope things work out for all that are trying to escape the WTS. But I know that I will probably never meet anyone in person nor do I feel the need to. My life is getting better as time goes on. I value this board and all that everyone has done to help myself and others, but my life lies outside both the JW community and the X-JW community.

LOL! Well, that gives me a bit more courage.
though I don't reveal myself "totally" I do so truthfully.
I do the same.
I wonder if some posters add in some fabricated details to avoid being identified. I would understand that ploy, though one might get labeled "troll" and have to work thru that...
