So first of all, I have no idea where this is supposed to go.
Anyways, so I am a very strict person when it comes to personal details like emails, etc. So I’m wondering what is the point of giving your email in a VA application form? What is it used for?
This is the only thing stopping me from joining VA’s. The internet can be dangerous when it comes to these things, so I am curious what is the actual purpose of giving it.
If it’s for communication, why? When you can PM the person on the IFC.
A lot of VAs use Slack for communication. They need an e-mail address to add you to their channel. A lot of times, this is the main reason why they’re asking for it :)
Well, I think it it mostly for communication. I have signed up for VA’s and have given my email, and they email me for events and stuff for that. Honestly, throughout all the VA’s that I have joined, I have only used my email for Slack, or Discord.
I think it is very good, that you understand that the internet is a dangerous place, where sensitive info like that can easily be found out. Very good skill to have!
