Why don't you want to say your age, interests, etc....?

I have seen several profiles here that don't say the age of the persons. Even the particular interests and other personal things.....We sometimes chat with misterious people. Can we be more open to share what we do or what we like to do? What do you think of this?

Em... I don't agree with Zack, Hackers can intrude to your system without knowing your name, age or even photos :p
But you should be really geek to hack the new systems, with improved security features.

I think that new people don't know how things turn here at first.
When I was new here I thought this website just to find language partners then add on MSN and talk with. But when I searched more, I discovered the groups , answers...

Sometimes people prefer to hide their age and other information to avoid bothering or just because they want to stay anonymous.

Well; I think some people find these kind of information r too personal & just close friends who r allowed to know about, like age & being single or not .. maybe they find it waste of time to write a long or a short paragraph introducing urself; let people discover u from ur acts ! maybe it's weird to chat with misterious people; but we don't need to know some information to be with or against !!
4 me .. I didn't write something to introduce myself coz I need lot of time to discover who I am & more time to express it :-p
& what annoys me: why some people don't write a short message in their invitations?
thnx 4 the Q Teresa !
