Good Grief. To be able to post on AuctionWatch message boards ---Auction Watch wants my CREDIT CARD!!!!!! This is to insure responsible posting!!! This was revised in the agreement today

I don't see a charge being talked about--YET. But I certainly don't want them to have my credit card just so I can post here. !!!!

"To encourage responsible participation, AuctionWatch limits posting in its Message Center to users who have registered for AuctionWatch with a credit card."
Are we to assume that all the people suddenly leaving AW knew about this in advance?

So...like if you curse in a post or something, are they gonna charge you card? Wonder how much? Does it depend on the curse word? Some more expensive than others? Hmmm..

This was one of the things that I said would happen (along with many other posters). When AW began charging for picture hosting, the possibility that they would charge for using the message boards was discussed.
When pigs fly and hell freezes over.
How many of us were onboard with AW from the early days? How many of use basically made AW what they are today? Just because we can't afford to pay to host pictures here, we will not be allowed to use the message boards.
Nonsense. It's just another nail in the coffin. Those of you who use the hosting services should be forewarned. You'd better find another way to host your pictures.

Is that the sound of my own voice echoing through these vacant halls?
