Warning: Be careful what you say, especially in public places that are archived!

What is said may reveal personal information such as:

• Location / IP Address.
• Personality.
• Skills, Aims, Goals.
• Personal Details.
• ...

To keep the IP address hidden, visit these websites anonymously over Tor, using either the Kicksecure or Tor Browser from The Tor Project. To delink questions from an existing email or OpenID, it is advisable to create a separate email address, OpenID, and user name/s just for this purpose.

Be careful with the advice received from public places. Always get a second opinion and do not run commands or perform steps which you do not understand. Never post any custom code or output that pertains to your system or onion service specifically.

The Kicksecure team is promoting the "Self Support First Policy". It is a policy, usually employed by small open source teams with limited resources. It means utilizing all of your options from public sources first, then search engines, already existing content and answers, then sources inside the forum and only then consider reaching out in the forum and through direct support.
