Great idea, why don't we all put our phone numbers on the internet for 7 billion people to see. That 7 billion includes murderers, rapists, stalkers ETC
Reconsider advertising your phone number.

I wonder if this is really the number of the one who posted this or if this was instead posted by an ex-boyfriend angry at being dumped attempting petty revenge (or little brother, girl wanting revenge at school, etc).
Well if anyone calls, let us know.

You're suppose to keep contact information like phone numbers on the "Contact Info" tab of your profile page. There are settings on your accounts CP where you set your contact info to either everyone who has an account on the forum, or only people who have accepted your friend requests, or nobody. That way there only members of the forum can access it and not everyone else who may potentially view the threads. I think people who aren't members or are not signed in can only view so many threads until they are blocked from viewing more unless they join. I suggest editing that post of yours and deleting the phone number from the post. Most people on here will know how to find it on your profile. Otherwise your post may be deleted by the moderators.
In my experience, many people on this forum will potentially send a "friend request" the first time you join, and may even send emails or private messages to you, but won't be willing to give you any audio conversations until you have at least have had some conversation with them on the forum (such as small talk on threads, enough responses on private messages, or the chatroom, which is all texting with some emocons). With my ignorance on sociology I can only guess this is because in our modern culture, most people believe online friends have to earn each others trust before sharing voices. I don't know, don't ask me.
With that said, I think most people on here are going to assume you are trying to pull a prank with that phone number, either on us, the real owner of that phone number, or both. I'm not accusing you of that, not at all. But I am telling you most people online are probably going to assume that. So if you really want to make some real friends on this forum, I suggest you have patience and engage the forum.
