Could thieves be browsing our forums?

Think about it...If they know that so many of us are on this forum maybe they browse it to find out what we're doing etc!
Like the R1 that was stolen the other day from NC30.
If they were browsing they'd now know what not to do, where not to go and what specials the bike has to cover up aka the scratches mentioned.
I've posted this in a new thread to emphasize the point. Maybe some sort of security should be made so you HAVE to be a member and prove who you are and give details.

yes but they can still browse not being a member too,

just use the friends tag in your profile more carefully and buy a bigger chain ..

The amount of info thats posted on the net will always give the game away to who, what, where and when.

I'm not sure what could be done...not like it would matter anyway. I can tell you all where I live and steal 20 bikes you still wouldn't know it's me.
Any geniuses around?

TBH the thieves would know who had what bikes, but not exactly where they were......unless stalked our areas in the hope of bumping into us.

Most of these gangs have spotters I expect.

I don't think anyone is daft enough to post there personal details on a forum, people just have to be extra vigilant especially if they own a fancy bike, it only takes a criminal to spot you ridin it, follow you home and nick it. It's all about security.

i think its easier for thieves to follow someone home from a bike meet than track someone over the net

that being said i think we should all try to keep our personal details a little more to ourself, I've made that mistake today saying i lived in X.XX post code, and well, i sure am not going to make that mistake again...gotta keep watching.

Ive been a bit stupid in the past saying what area I live in , if you really wanted to find me it would be all to easy.
+ I regret chosing the user name I did, Don't think korn would change it though.
