Of course if that's a super secret ordeal, then don't mind me lol. My mind goes a million places a minute, I often get questions like this rattling around!
It is easy to spot people doing that. Larry's all over this board so he knows who is doing such. Also, if you click on a persons name in a thread you can then click on find more posts by "user". That will bring up a list of all posts that user has posted making it simple to track down people. I fully admit to trying to respond to as many posts as possible in a bid to get to my 250. I need some more gear for an upcoming trip and that $50 gift cert will really help. At the same time though I try to add meaningful posts and not abuse the system. At any rate even with the $50 gift cert ST certainly isn't losing any money on me, that's for sure.
