If that were the case, then why not just make us say who we are. Like give a full name and mailing address to AW. Or send us an e-mail and make us click a link like any NORMAL site does to verify identity?
AW said it was to PROTECT posters' privacy that the credit card method would be used.
If they have a cc# and no one else knows who anyone is, it will not change anyone's behavior here. Hmm..they could charge a quarter everytime someone post an ugly word...like a "curse jug".
Then there are those will say who they are boldly and couldn't give a flip about their behavior anyway.
AW having a NUMBER on file is not an "identity" and will NOT change anyone's behavior.
I think everyone should just own up to who they really are and the web would be a much better place...unless most of you wear a bag on your head all the time in real life to protect your privacy.

Thank you Helen. I know you are going to have to really struggle to find someone to fight with. I am sorry.

I'll miss you Terri, but if my goal is to find somebody to fight with I doubt that your departure will limit the possibilities very much.
Actually, I wasn't looking for somebody to fight with.

Edited because I should not joke about the seriousness of this topic.
