Protect your personal identity

I think that it is the personal responsibility of the contributor, and the moderators shouldn’t get involved unless it directly effects the forum’s legal/commercial position.

If someone doesn’t wish to be ‘outed’ then perhaps they should change their log in name periodically. If someone is careless enough to leave a string of clues, and sometimes photographs, to help us identify them, well….. Others don’t seem to mind and still more contribute under their real name.

I think of you as being one of the contributors who doesn’t seem to mind; I believe I know who you are (got you in the first few posts); however I would be disappointed to find out that I had left enough clues for you to know who I am. This arrangement allows me to play the devil’s advocate and even send up 'trial balloons' to test out my hidden agenda.
