There are some cases where I might find it appropriate to do so, like if a pet is missing. However, I'd never do it, for instance, to have someone call me for information on an item they're selling! Is it that they just don't realize that they're virtually putting their personal information on the internet forever? Protect your personal information and just don't do it if it's not really necessary!

Good point! In fact, it is noted in the forum instructions (site guidlines) not to do it.
