  I understand the first thread about  forthcoming changes being deleted,  there was several posts that were against WGT guidelines.

  However, why was the second thread deleted ?  Last time I checked, no posts were against guidelines.

  Did I miss something?

  Perhaps they thought that it was a lot of fuss over nothing.

  That would be true about the majority of threads here Courtney.

  I started a 3rd all I did was basically ask if they would consider a more secure method of verification and reconsider the storage of the personal information such as my passport, my license, my utility bills, and my credit card information and inside 2 minutes it was deleted.

  I think I may of hit a nerve.

  I'm not sure privacy rights and safeguarding ones identity is "a lot of fuss over nothing", however everyone has an opinion.

  a quick question, what is the record for the most delete thread?

  Not that this thread will be deleted, nothing to see here folks, only debate regarding the forthcoming changes about account verification and the storage of personal data.

  That's a very concise summary of your 3rd post.  And I agree with your point, sending private information via e-mail is not secure.  I'm sure lots of people send private info via e-mail every day.  Will their identity be stolen?  Probably not.  But why should we take the risk?  There are more secure ways to do it.

  I did see your 3rd btw.  If your 3rd post had been only your concise summary as above, I think you would have been OK.   But since you repeated verbatim your 5 or 6 paragraph diatribe from the 2nd attempt thread you gave them no choice IMO.
