Look like your facebook account ? We have to face the fact that personal information does not have the same value for all. And sometime it's scary how critical info is available for all to read at everybody indiference. Regardless. We hide personal information because the critical infrastructure that depend on it is not secure enought to resist am indentity theft. The fact that everybody know my bank account number should not matter since they should not be able to access it for example.

Yast is a bit assinine. On SLES 11 if you edit your network config it tend to erase your primary gateway. Still it's nice to use when you don't now how to write a config file. It make for good example. Just remember that if you edited something by hand don't use yast on that config file. And always backup your config before making any change.

Not always, There are some game where leveling up does not significantly add to your party fighting ability, collecting, buying and timing are the way to go then. It's a way to replace the level up grind by another kind of levelup but it as a tendency of making the game more complex and it does tend to push you to your friendly strategy guide. And then you have the all the monster level at the same time as you aka FF8, Oblivion so leveling is useless in this system as well.
