I have heard....rumors of that…

That is one of the reasons I was always just Wonka until recently Leon wanted my last name added which most everyone knew already...

In the end I will always stand beside what I type here. But I ended up on the axe grinders site because somebody forwarded my name and business email with my company info. Next thing you know my company is popping up on Google linked to a web rant page filled with anti-Semitic babble….luckily I work in the entertainment business where there are very few Jews so no big deal.

That’s why for the most part happy to be Wonka or John.

Dan & Leon so what is the deal now? Not that it matters now but for the new guys full name or no…give me the reader’s digest on this.

John

John

So I/we can get out from under the gun of having to monitor the site 7x24, and be involved in way too many threads I/we don't want to be involved in, the rule will be changing. There will still be 0 "total" anonymity as the moderators will have every members contact info. That info will remain private unless someone asks for it who is involved in a discussion with the unknown (to the board) member. Hopefully that will satisfy almost everyone. I will probably put in a caveat that says if someone goes ballistic their name may still be made public, at the moderators discretion. That might help with folks that want to go off the deep end without fear of being known publicly. The goal is to keep privacy, when needed, but also to keep accountability. So the short answer is, you can take your name off your sig line if you want to, John. regards

If our name and/or contact information is requested by someone and given to him or her, can we expect to be notified by a moderator?

Thanks.

Yes, I will be happy to let folks know when someone inquires about them. It's a two way street.
