Hi,
I wish something will happen to all FORMs to fill in from clients.
Some have questions in it about private info. Some have tests inside the form.
I wish Upwork could inform clients when posting a job about this.
It's getting annoying to have them so often.
And when trying to say I can not fill in my personal info. They decline.

The clients probably already know that they aren't supposed to ask, that's why they ask in a form instead of in their gig post. It is a way to evade detection, similar to inviting people to Google Hangouts. If you inform a client of the rules and they decline you, what have you lost? A client who wants to break the rules?
I don't like that we can't communicate off Upwork prior to a contract because it is very inconvenient. But, I am not sure I would trust a client who, once informed of the rule, rejected freelancers who adhered to it.

You are right.
One client became rude and told she wanted to know people and have a relationship before working. It's important for her.
