as you might know, several members including some who are running for office like to bring up the issue of transparency. So, that's what you have, no fact checking the applicants, no minimum posts, no IP address research, no minimum time as a member. I hope that those who like transparency aren't changing their minds now. A little too late i'd say? I like making sure members are members, but heck, what do i know. This "transparency" thing is all the rage, you know.
