is posting your full name. I am a bit hesitant to trade with someone who I not only know nothing about, but appears to be hiding who they are. I understand that many new posters do not feel comfortable putting their real name out there, but it is a hindrance to making trades (and getting answers to questions). It is just the culture on this board that people post their names, and not clever pseudonyms. It also might help if you suggest what you have that you might offer in trade. What do you collect?
