Re: Change to Ed West's posting schedule
kormoran,
"...a well known authors is hiding his real name behind a nickname here to get no later problems. You all own his books and know his creditable work. Now he tells us his real thoughts in this thread which he never could recognize under his real name..." If this is the actual case, then I call bullshit on it. Whatever is wrong with an author holding a different view to other people? If he believes Ed is wrong to post current auctions, fair enough. Nobody on here should think any the less of him for his personal viewpoint. However, if he is hiding behind a nom-de-plume and hurling insults at people, (as has happened in earlier posts in this thread) then he is a prick. And I would tell him on this board, or to his face, even if it was someone I had known for years.
"...I only want to tell you that sometimes it's necessary to keep the anonymity..." So tell us when those times are. If a person wants to make valid points, or advance a sensible argument, then there is no need for anonimity. In a lot of cases, anonimity is the refuge of the internet troll, or someone who wants to bad-mouth someone else without anyone knowing who they are. In such circumstances, they are a Grade-1 shithouse. Period.
