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.
