>>>All vendors must IDENTIFY THEIR AFFILIATION when acting in the role of vendor<<< How do you suggest identifying Vendor Affiliation?

Lou: I can think of two ways: 1) modify your handle (or nickname) for the Forum, or 2) add you affiliation to your signature when responding to a message posting regarding your product or a competitor's product. This purpose is simply to enable readers to know that your information – when discussing your products or a competitor's – may have a certain bias. There is absolutely nothing wrong with bias, if it is clearly identified so that the reader has complete information about the source and his/her orientation. Hope this helps. — Rich Bowers
