if you would read my comments on my recommendation a couple of months ago, you would probably understand. it would give people a chance to show that there is a private address to send to. it would also give someone a chance to trade for something that they really want instead of leach's who are just not up for doing their own footwork to get an address. yeah to get a private address is tedious work sometimes, but it pays off dividends if you really are a fan. that and it would also free up the feed back section for those who do use the admins addresses, but if you think that this forum is fine the way it is then enjoy. i will be doing my homework and keep doing what i do.

people just don't get it sometimes
Instead of a flip answer, why don't you try to explain it. I've read the reasons that other give about trading, that's fine. I would imagine that all of the addresses on this site were at one time "unknown" and had to be found. The website has flourished because the addresses were shared, as a community we helped each other. How many addresses in the database have you used? If you want to keep your email addresses, fine. No big deal but asking for a "private address section" on this site, that's what I don't get. Refrain from the insulting comments and explain why that would be of interest to the collecting community. Thanks.
