Ok but what if you cant verify your picture because your phone wont let you send one? does that mean i would not be able to do anything or what just wondering
In that case, if we implemented this restriction, you would only be able to read the Forums, but you would not be able to post anything.

Another thing that I consider is that I imagine Andres probably has more important things he could be doing than to always be checking our reports, then banning fakes and trolls! For instance, look at Andres post about Tom Walsh aka xxxxdonna, that post had to be very time consuming!
lol, I had a feeling no one would want to debate this point!
That's because I didn't see it:) Hell, let's just outlaw all automobiles cuz the brakes failed on one and caused an accident...

You're absolutely right, it would not be fair to users such as yourself, that's one of the original "Cons" I mentioned at the beginning of the thread.

To be honest, I'm not sure how allowing "guest" users to post but not send private messages would solve the problem at hand.

My last plea in favor of allowing all members to post on the forum...Just did a lil un-scientific survey of the "New Posts" section. There were no threads ovr 2 pages long and 17 members actually online, 8 of which had no verified picture. Are we gonna let the number of forum users at any moment be cut in half just because they may choose not to verify a pic? I should hope not, at least until participation in the forum can somehow be expanded dramatically. My campaigning on this issue is now over and I will be ok with whatever choice is made.
