Hidden people

Why do it?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

But certain individuals don't want others to know they're online 24/7. :-$

I'm hidden on other msg boards simply because I'd rather not have people PMing me all the time when they know I'm on.........I'm usually busy moderating the boards and don't really feel like getting inturrupted by PMs.......though that really doesn't help much when I am ALWAYS on IM and the ppl could simply IM me instead of PMing me.

Some people just don't want others to know they're on.........it doesn't really hurt anything if they happen to be hidden.


Peace Out

God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called.

God, Grant us the peace that comes from honest dealings so that no fear of discovery will haunt our sleep May we inflict no pain, bring no shame, and seek no profit by another's loss.

I tend to alternate between hidden mode and normal mode. I don't know why I sometimes use the hidden option, however...maybe it's that slightly sneaky feeling you get. :-k
sorrowing you must go, and yet you are not without hope

Indeed. I'm not always hidden, although recently I have been for one primary reason: The Amazing Race. Those who are involved in the game should understand my reasoning. :anxious:

I'm never hidden. Don't see a point in hiding. People can know what I'm doing. It's not like I do anything that I am ashamed of... ;)

I think I'm going to stay hidden for a while. That way certain people won't be able to make rude faces at me. :noway: At least, not directly at me. :anxious:
