just cause those who have been here for years are against it. well i just joined this site and one thing i have seen out of some of you who have been here is that you don't guide as much to private addresses. i do have insight on what could work. you might be against the change, but you are not thinking outside the box. do you remember how you got into this hobby and what you had to do to get where you are on experience. the category would help guide people to get knowledge on how to find the addresses they need. it is up to the person who posts the success whether or not they give it out. the trash is not the place for success'. some of these new faces that are joining can offer insight to what could make this site better. it is like a recipe to make this site better. you may disagree with it, but if people cannot help others on this site then why keep the site going with faulty addresses.

The thing is you need to provide proof of where you sent to and where the autograph came from which is why things get deleted without a address which makes sence because by posting successes from private addresses you can either put the address and ruin the celebs privacy or not post it which you want to do but by doing that it will just cause the poster to get tons of PM messages with people begging for the address which will lead to private trading of addresses and all sorts of other problems and possibly even some people asking for money for the private addresses and also without posting the address with your success you could have bought the autograph or lie about how you got it which is why Admin asks for proof which is address and picture of envelope with return address {up} Why dont you guys just start a new website for private address people if you are so worried about it and dont seem to be happy with this site how it is now. Just post the successes in feedback with the address or dont post because isnt this site about posting the address if you can to help others rather than posting a success with no address which really is just bragging and fishing for compliments. :?

the thing is that they have a category for everything else. why not a private address category. is it cause one would rather be a lazy and not want to do a little homework. posting a private address category they can still put the envelopes in the picture with the success. at least it would not be like a VV address that people are not able to get after so long. VV addresses expire and people don't always get the success till after it does expire. where a private address would be able to at least be traded for something that someone needs. as for people selling the addresses, should it not be fair that if you are going to take advantage of someone's time and hard work that they deserve to do that. people are able to do it now as it is. a success is a success does it belong in a garbage bin. how would you feel if all your autographs that you receive that are authentic ended up in the trash when you just want to show your friends what you have. again think outside the box for a second and treat it like it were your autograph that was thrown away in reality. you say that posting a success with no address is just bragging and fishing for compliments well when i post the city that i sent to yet i am knocked for not helping others. i could care less if people compliment my success or not. it is not that i am against the site the way it is now. i just have ideas on what could make it better. i do say that if you have a problem with change, or other people offering an idea up that might improve the site. well why even have a forum ideas column. this is what it is for. if ideas are not taken into consideration then remove this column.

You have the right to bring up new ideas and you have stated your point of view on this idea and so have i so not much point in talking about it anymore because either it will happen or it wont and it hopefully and probably wont because its abad idea and no people dont deserve to flaunt private successes and then sell that information if they choose,you kind of made my point by saying that ....Bad Idea ;-) [ca]

When you use the address in database and get a sec or PP the site considers that a success when its not. Its just that you used their info to get something thats not really a success.Leaving up these addresses is worse than posting a real success with a different address that if you really want that person and not a sec you can find it with some work. Bottom line Johnny I respectfully disagree.
