You're starting to convince me, tp...I feel dizzy.

Granted nobody goes for the "member since" stuff like they used to....and even though I am beginning to agree with you up to a point....I still believe that a LOT of the issues could be resolved if anonymods were given permanent unique anonyID's. Something as simple as #1, #2, #3, eh? As I understand it, our beloved mods all use the same ID. It's shades of dangling purplishly.

I'm not sure I see the point in keeping all kinds of statistics on anyone. At all. Much less making them available. If I got arrested for running naked through the forum, I wouldn't neccessarily want you to know about it. I wouldn't want anyone keeping statistics on how many times I did it. I wouldn't want every participant at Free Republic to be able to access my vital statistics. I absolutely wouldn't want to know about anyone else's bare-naked statistics. (Well, maybe.)

I'll consider your POV more, though. Btw: There's also no such thing as too much information about an unknown moderator, before you reply.

I'm with you umpteen hundred percent on the Mod 1, Mod 2 type ID's. -- How can you you keep track of the game without numbers on the players?

Which is also the point on having available some simple public info on the members. Peer pressure works.

And secrecy sucks.

Please supply some photos of your next naked romp through the forum. We can then decide for ourselves if you should be arrested.
