VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: The forum54 boards are good. You can register with a name (so no-one else can use it), but you can still post unregistered under aliases (which are half the fun when not impersonating)
In reply to: ant 's message, "It takes 2 seconds to find it. I have your name, address and other details up in a browser in front of me. Not that I would do anything with it. Yeah, I reckon a members only board would solve a lot of problems. Lets face it there isn't exactly a lot of passing trade - its now down to a group of about 20 regulars who post stuff so it'll make no odds." on 13:21:49 05/14/02 Tue

[> [> [> [> But the problem yesterday wasn't really "impostering". The problem was someone simply tracked Nick P's details and made a spoof posting (which was quite funny actually). Allowing people to post anonymously wouldn't stop this. -- ant, 13:44:54 05/14/02 Tue (213.122.116.217)
