There is another poster Long Time that used to make a Deal out of posters that were considered Anon.
If they were new members, recent join date and low post count, their posts were considered to be less credible.
And Heaven forbid that any new member had an opinion of their own, valid or not.
They were automatically dubbed Anon Haters. Hardly a fair deal for them, right. And yet, they never chased a member, from the board. Yeah sure.
Honestly, I have seen new members get chased off within a few posts, never to return.
Their only crime, to think that they were welcome to join in on any conversation.
And to try and be fair, in the heat of a Flame War, many new memberships do appear on occasion.
On the other hand, it is as how I described it at times. Members with an early join date but low post count. Their only mistake was to have joined in on the wrong Thread and get torn a new one.
It is what it is on AZB. I believe that we would welcome any Pro that wants to post. It seems that lately, pretty much any Name that makes a Thread here has an angle. The members have caught on to it, got old real quick and they get chased off.
So, don't blame the general membership, blame the scammers that try and take advantage of the generosity that is displayed here frequently.
Not long ago, a couple of kids got money for Church Camp. Another member had a Father that was a little short and the members of NPR got together and raised enuff money for 2 new pair of work boots.
Its not always as it seems. We just try and keep the scamming down to a minimum.
