Displaying your Full Name on FOCT?

In terms of privacy and discretion, you may decide that you do not want to display your full name to other users of FOCT.

However, guys have accidentally done this when joining the group!

The most common mistake is to sign up to the group using an email address that contains your full name. All members' email addresses are visible to EVERYONE in the group. If your name is John Smith and your email address is john.smith@hotmail.com then everyone will see this.

The best option is to create a new Yahoo! account (click here) with the same name that you use on a contact site, such as 'HotStud', so your email address will be displayed as something like HotStud@yahoo.com.

Once you create your new profile, take care how you fill in the details.



Where it says 'Full Name' (blue arrow) this will be visible only to people you link profiles with. You have to fill in two fields, one for first name and one for surname, but you can put anything in these fields.

Where it says 'Display Name' (red arrow), this will be visible to EVERYONE on the group.

To edit your profile from the group website, click on your name in the top left corner (Where it says "Hi, You") then click "Edit Profile".

Take care out there!
