Why is Audiogon insisting on a verified physical address in order to post?


Quick question

I just had to enter a verified address into my profile in order to continue posting here.

Does anyone know why that took place?   I don't really love posting my physical address on user groups like this.    

Did anyone else have to do this?
Thanks

I verified things the morning it was first required.  I assumed it was to fight bots. I was surprised to not see a thread about it.  I guess the people who wanted to start a thread were the ones having a problem getting on.

@tonydennison I thought about that but the bot tenders are going to find out about it as soon as they try to sign up so hiding it doesn't seem necessary.
