bigger pockets and privacy

I'm mildly concerned about the fact that my full name is showing up in google search results that include biggerpockets.com pages. Creates privacy issues, my tenants could read it, etc. And no way to remove the posts even if I shut down my account. I've been careful in what I post so far, but it would better if the site allowed for more anonymous posting, or if the posts were not googleable. Also that fact that I've had to be careful creates a problem-I'm less open with sharing knowledge/experience with other members of the community.

I understand their are tradeoffs of publicity for the site and preventing trolls.
