Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile?


Many of you ask others to advise you, but the answer to so many questions is system dependent.  Why don’t you post your system on your profile prior to requesting help?

Too many people just like to pretend they have experience with everything and want to give advice on everything.

It will be interesting to hear from those who do not have their systems posted - on why they do not.

Ha. I put mine on here and someone said tidy things up and then put it on here.
 

You should have responded to that with - “please post yours, so that I can take a hint”. And this is what I meant in my post. People preach useless things and not follow it themselves. At least you have a system and I will respect your advice more than the (other)wise poster

@jjss49 ,

You nailed it!

I see that there are many poster from early 2000s that have 10-20 posts till 2017-2018 and then there is a flood of posts after that till date, especially gravitating towards a certain brands. These are also some posters with red flags, for me. I feel these might have been the accounts that were probably hacked - I am not sure - but something about such poster does not sit right. Worst part is that for some of these posters, the recommendation that they provide and the system that they have listed do not even match. Hence the red flag on such posters, for me.

I have been on this site for quite some time. There are a handful of posters who do not have systems registered, but I know they are genuine posters. 

Well, you have to be smart enough to know what personal information to post and which one to not post. Also make sure that passwords are super strong. That is the main reason accounts get hacked, and not because of personal info. Your personal information is available on public domain. Do a check yourself.

Use something like PasswordSafe to store your passwords for different sites. But make sure that the Master password to PasswordSafe is at least 15 to 20 characters long with upper, lower case, special characters and numbers. PasswordSafe can also generate passwords for you that you don’t have to remember. Just double click when in the app and paste it in the site. When you exit out of the PasswordSafe, that password is not in memory anymore.

I am surprised that folks have such nice systems and did not post earlier. Feel like 2005 again when I joined and so many folks posted their system. There was a lot to see and learn and also use tips to decorate/rearrange your room.

@vonhelmholtz , you got it going man!
