If this forum was to either start charging a membership fee. The Numbers would drop down below 25% I would guess. If they were to force an ID rule, where people would have to send some form of ID. I would not do that, I do not like sending details about myself over the net, or to a place that I could just give a miss too. But that said, both issues, the numbers would drop greatly. I would just use my computer graphic design skills and forge a fake identification that might say my name, but the other details would completly be false, Like address and such. Whats the big deal, we have moderators, and things have been going fine for months now. Real names or not, things have been running smooth.
