I know about the public profile thing (just Google your Applianceville "handle" and find out), but it doesn't really matter to me. Very few non-members have emailed me, and it's normally to ask some sort of technical question about a machine and of course I help them out.
"There is a guy who lurks on to washer.org but is no longer a member he says because Robert and him had a falling out but he wrote to Hooverland that he visits this site still on a regular bases."
I know who that is...he's VERY strange to say the least and probably isn't 100% complete "up there" judging by what he DID post when he was a member on here. I wasn't around when Robert banned him, but he got my email address and sent a few odd "looking for a friend" emails my way, which I deleted and then blocked his address.
With every club, there's bound to be psychos, both members AND lurkers.
