I spoke with couple of blokes who had some unpleasant encounters. They said they had been in forums that were concerned with (IIRC) computers and tennis. Some of the other parties had began to hurl off-topic political abuse when they said where they came from. Inappropriate behavior in my opinion.

As for too personal questions; I can always state that "I'd rather not talk/write about it" or something like that if something gets too close.
