Walk away thread deletion

[Bruce K]

I have temporarily deleted the thread until we can decide whether it was appropriate to list the OP's real name and if not, how to delete the many references

The thread will be re-opened shortly

Real names are cool.

[Bruce K]

Maybe but we were messaged by members with concerns (not Raygunner)

I found it interesting that IR mentioned it.

[nighthawk]

It seemed inappropriate to me.

But I'm just a casual observer.

[CunegoFan]

It seems to me that if someone if going to call out somebody else by name then his actual name should be on the complaint. Why should only one party get anonymity?

[pbarry]

Because one is a "public figure" and doing business under their own name. The other is a 'private" individual seeking to buy a product from the first.

[Admiral Ackbar]

lol.

[Bruce K]

That us our dilemma - I don't think any business would publish a customer list or a customer name without repercussions

Again, we hope to re-open the thread as soon as we can get this issue resolved

Facebook does it millions of times per hour.

You mods rock, btw. Thanks for all you do to keep this one of the more intelligent, civil venues on the Internet. Not an easy task.

I use my real name and somehow assumed that all you guys did too but that your parents had a warped sense of humor.

Thanks mods for erring on the side of caution.

Mad Props to the Mods here, others could learn from you, great job.
Believe it or not, Mods can be the problem on other boards as much as the trolls. You guys do a standup job here.
This is turning into my go spot for bike stuff.
