this isn't a joking matter: Time Out is a mainstream publication, many HK residents read it. including some people who might not otherwise know about this forum. do i need to spell it out for you guys?
my understanding is that they did indeed have a mole on the forum who was outed quickly by our mods. however, simply mentioning the name or URL in a mainstream publication may make certain people curious. what happens if i type those words into my husband's laptop/mobile phone...wow, the autofill completes it and, i'm on the site! and since the cookie fills in the username/password (as one of our bros left it turned on for convenience)...OMG, i'm..."BigCockMonster"?? lets check out what MY SO HAS BEEN UP TO.
yeah, it's always good fun until someone gets caught--and in our Net-enabled world that's easier than ever. TOHK is a legit media outlet but they can't be expected to understand what sort of damage they might cause by publishing website names/URLs.
oh and if you have an SO, turn off the autofill at a minimum.

PS: here's the link to the article on "The Professionals": very mainstream, no mention of 141...
