Ruy, let me just say that I think you and your moderators are doing an admirable job with this forum. It is, and has been for a very long time, the most serious aviation history board on the Internet (sorry if that offends anyone, but I actually think most here will agree with me).

You mention that part of the problem with certain posters is their anonymity. I was just wondering if it could be a solution to demand that all register with their full real name, or alternatively, are requested to use it in their signature (of course false names can easly be used, but then you know the individual will be up to no good as such users will eventually reveal themselves)?

We have this solution for the IPMS-Norway board and it works fine, no-one can hide behind nicknames there and consequently there are no flame-wars or discussions disrupted by personal attacks there. Of course, this is also aided by a strongly enforced "no religious or political discussions", at least no current ones, unless they are relevant to our modelling threads.

Just a thought. Keep up the good work.

P.S. And to Edwest, never stop posting your ebay listings! You should have an award or something for your contribution to aviation history. Your effort is much appreciated, also by me!
