Well... lying to a business owner in order to gain access to his business certainly isn't the epitome of transparency.

Anyone with half a brain sees that you are being ridiculous.

You're right - my apologies. It is the epitome of transparency.

I have no horse in this race, if you feel that it is immoral to take money from PWCC, that is your right.

Yes, because online anonymity is akin to defrauding unsuspecting buyers out of millions of dollars. Your'e the epitome of absurdity.

Why would anyone even have to use a fake name to participate on a chat board??? So weird. I love the fact that we have to use our real name and be verified and held accountable for what we say.

When I registered 10 years ago, I thought "Why would anyone join a chat board that asks for personal information?" Doxxing, stolen identity, stalkers, nasty people with vendettas having access to your info, etc. I still think it's crazy to force people to post their personal info due to the reasons listed, but whatever. I'm not doing anything wrong. It's still risky to put yourself and others out there, even more so now than 10 years ago.

it is not “so weird.” I bet it was 10 years that I lurked on this board before registering. I just didn’t feel comfortable handing over personal info just to talk about baseball cards. after I semi-retired and had more time on my hands, I decided to go ahead and register. I never thought about registering under a fake name, but I can understand why someone would do it.

as for The inconsistencies, that is one of the consistencies of this board. there are a large number of members who routinely post opinions with no name on their posts. oldjudge has more than 3000 posts and is quite active praising and bashing companies and people yet none of his posts currently contain his name. I don’t mind the rule now, and when I did, I chose not to post. it would be nice if the rule was enforced for everyone, especially when it is touted all the time.

This thread is an unfortunate example of what's wrong with this site. Way too much negativity and guys complaining about everything. Now people have a problem with where Leon gets advertising money from to support this free site? If it bothers you that much go find another free site to complain about. See how long it takes you to get banned if you complain about their advertisers and how the owner conducts his or her business.
