annonymous posting on an unmoderated board

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.



Have you changed your mind yet?

Helen

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

Dear Diana,

1. Can you tell us whether AW has any plan to even attempt to come up with a solution to this problem?

2. Would it be reasonable to "grandfather" in existing users?

3. Does AW have plans to eliminate the boards here at AW if membership falls?

4. Are any other parties besides the immediate staff at AW involved in this decision?

Thank you for your time and honesty.
