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

@nonoise Agree that most everything one does on the web if possible is monetized. The forum side of Agon infromes and supports the buy/sell side and thus the need for those required fill in the blanks.

Our digital trails are a regrettable appendage of our life’s today. Some if it is good say if you have a medical problem or want to sell your speakers.

This is a test. Tried posting and was asked to verify phone #. They sent a code which I dittoed. Physical address already on file.

@wsrrsw My favorite Groucho Marx quote. 😀

I received two other notices of someone "mentioning" me only to discover deleted posts. Is this the audio equivalent of a drive-by? How brave and mature.

I remember a certain someone who's been repeatedly banned doing that as a matter of course from getting his posts taken down by the mods, which of course, led to his getting banned all over again.

History can repeat itself as well as rhyme. 👍

All the best,

A land line is a telephone hard connected to the network via bell wire (the way it all started).

We also have a "modern" portable battery powered phone hooked up to the main line for use on the patio.

The computer is connected to our other (2ND) land line as I feel that it is more secure than WiFi.
