I understand. Another forum I go to, they ban the member if they flame but occasionally, it is'nt them. They get *Ahem* "Haxored!" [:D]

More ideas to protect yourself:

Change your password occasionally. I.E.: From sd40 to sd402

and Never let anyone know your password (Or screenname)

I'm not too crazy about name changing I guess because of the "abuse" potential. [:-,][|(][D)] But it is an option that we are free to excercise.

[8)][8)][8D][:)][:D][8)] IMHO----While the above listed guys might not be a problem, it was pointed out on another thread that some modelers with multiple names take advantage of the situation and as many of us have seen, instigate
"Flame Fanning" ( name calling, insulting, talking down to) on this Forum.

In using multiple names, some may be tempted to keep an argument that's heading towards toilet levels [V], ongoing.
.
While it can be entertaining for many of us, Fanning Flames can be a Total Turn-Off for modelers that need help with the hobby. On the flip side, seasoned experienced modelers that posess a wealth of knowledge could also be turned off and go elsewhere. The loss would then be ours.

Personally, [:D] I have enjoyed the tremendous amout of info and help that I've received. I've printed up about 25 pages of helpful thread responses from this forum. Modeling now has been so much more enjoyable.
