Yeah. I was noticing that I had a certain reputation that preceded me on a few forums and I also wanted to see what the reaction would be towards an unregistered person who had the semblance of being around for a while and whatnot, whether or not people would treat them differently.
But no, I found that even though virtually all of Cashew's posts had been helpful (minus the posts in that horrendous topic on this forum) he was treated with disdain just because he posted as unregistered.
So whether somebody knows what they're talking about or whether they don't doesn't seem to matter to a lot of people. All that seems to matter to them is somebody's registration date or their posts count.
I must say, I was rather disappointed with three or four people from this forum and their reactions. Instead of taking things in stride they felt a need to lash out and attack the unregistered person just because he was unregistered.
The test was a success, but not the kind I wanted it to be.
