Bill D, thanks for setting out the history, but the most disruptive & damaging episode I remember involved the antics of one Michael K (who eventually apologised). As far as I remember, he was not posting as a guest but somehow masqueraded as other members. Would such deceits still be possible under the new regime that Max is now proposing?

(I'm following this thread rather than the one Max started because the one Max started has gone past 200 posts. In my view anything past 100 is inconsiderate to people with lower-spec PCs.)
