What logs are kept on this site? IP logs? I am just thinking about if police take down this site again.

Think about what information is standard to keep with any MyBB instance, to start off.

And quit thinking about that.

You should think more in terms of, "how can I protect myself"

So, what email service? Gmail? Mistake.
What IP are you registering / visiting the forum on? Home IP? Mistake.

Are you discussing things that could link back to you personally? (E.g. "I have a purple cat" / "i drive a 04 chevy cruise" "I live in Washington DC" "my name is James") Mistake.

etc

Assume your information is compromised at all points in time,aand as a result do not GIVE any information aabout yourself that can be used against you

For sure. I'm following decent enough OPSEC but wanted to make sure I understood more of what was collected. Thanks for that information!

That's very fair and I understand, I'd just say assume everything that can be grabbed from you is collected from you. But at least you now know some more specifics!
