Negative sideeffects of being a webmaster
Do you have any experience relating people stalking you because you're administrating a forum?
Or any other side effects of being a forum administrator. What do I have to calculate before being big board administrator. Do I have to organize some things to better solve those problems or not to get them? Thanks! |

Go out there, be brave and live life! :up:
[no case reported of a murdered Administrator yet, everything is just 'wishful thinking'] |

What about stalkers, phones all day and night?

if you have stalkers from your board, you give too much information about yourself... pffft

No, just whois.
But that seems to be enough. I've seen "ID Protect" from enom.com and ask myself, if I should use that. But I'm not sure if this also changes the situation for legal cases. Do you also have problems like that ... or other problems? |

Then live in the 'offensive' and those worries will go away...
There are some hacks that help you gather some kind of information on your users, secondly: phone calls? don't you live in an industrial country? all can be traced, and finally if someone is stalking at you, you will learn some tricks on your own So, don't ask how is out there, be out there |

So far:
* Late working hours. * People always complain. * Idiots that think they're entitled to everything because they have a subscription. * You can never make everyone happy |

depending on the forum's general topic, if it's a site where unhealthy people go to network with other unhealthy people, you can easily wind up being an outsourced babysitter!
my references for that statement is a board i wrote a few mods for. it's a post-psychiatric care forum. needless to say, they were all mods dealing with behavior. |

I've never had a problem with stalkers, although it might be different if I were a hot-looking chick rather than an average, middle-aged dude.
The biggest "side effect" is the risk of the job consuming your life, 24/7. I've learned to set boundaries so that it doesn't, but there is that risk. |
