Hi all,
I have done all 8 of Candlelight's virtual letterboxes and enjoyed
the "hunt" and the beautiful picture/image you got at the end. I
just did Wren's virtual letterbox. When you complete the letterbox
there is no beautiful picture/image at the end. Instead there is a
message telling you to email him/her your home address and he/she
will send you futher instructions for an image swap.
I do not give out my home address to just anyone on the web who
happens to ask for it. I was very disappointed in this virtual
letterbox. When you finish there is nothing there :(
I was wondering how others felt about this.

---How disappointing! The Turtle did 3 virtuals and enjoyed
the "reward" at the end. I wouldn't give out my address. If it
doesn't feel right than don't do it. Turtle was hoping to complete
all the virtuals once the weather turned bad. Sorry to see that they
have been pulled.

Dear Moonstone Baby,
You are not alone in your sentiments. I posted about this on message
17846:
Dear Renee,
I love your online letterbox site. I did solve the puzzle and
received my code word, but I am reluctant to send my Real Life name
and address over the 'net, which your site requires. I realize that
this means that we will not be able to swap images.
Since others may have the same reserve, might I suggest an
alternative? Perhaps the images could be swapped as .jpg files via
email, thus allowing participants to maintain their anonymity. You
may find that more folks would be willing to play that way.
Just my $.02.

Nope. Makes you wonder. But innocent until proven otherwise. I
still will not give out my Real Life (tm) info just to up my found
count.

I did send out an address - safe enough since it wasn't my residence
or anything and she sent back her address in exchange. I have to
agree though that I'd prefer an online reward vs. risking sending out
my home address.
