Your idea fails due to the fact that this forum is indexed by many search engines, in fact, at any one time, many of the ”guests" you see listed as using the forum are likely spiders crawling the forum. Thus just ignoring bad/dangerous/stupid advice helps no one, and could hurt any number of unknown people.

Also, your seeming ”if something bad happens and we don't know, who cares?" view is.... Sad.

I love kitties!
I would so bust open that box, let the kitty go, and kick Dr. Schroedinger right in his schrotum.

"schrotum" Agreed, I would let the cat out of the box, and hold down the doc so you can get a good aim.

Based on something I read in another thread, I wonder if adding to the title of this thread might also help. Maybe "beware of xxyzx who gives wrong info"? That is if a thread title can be changed. Just a thought.

Thread subjects can be changed if a registered member started the thread. This one was started by a guest - no edit possibilities.

Perhaps a regular user should start another one, and bump that instead.

What should the options be?
