Such a recommendation would make no sense. If you did understand my hint from my annotation about your posting of the result of "uname -r" as to hide any version information then you got it totally wrong. And I really hope you meanwhile upgraded your kernel ;) Because that was my point, to not run kernels with know security bugs which may used by attackers to get control over your host. Hiding kernel version information does not help.
