"Search" feature up above, or eve-search.com. Look into it.

Post with your main and I'll be happy to answer your question!
OK I'll ask.

Do you have any factual basis to believe, that such a records check would reveal the evidence you're fishing for?

Edit: AS far as the OP is concerned, no. Have done in the passed, but now can't be bothered.

My personal views may not be the same as, and may cause problems for my corp.

Hence alt posting.

I tend to pay attention to the content of the post, rather than conerning myself with trying to decide if it is an alt post.

Who cares if a post is an alt post, and why would it matter?

The only time I have ever alt post was due to a banning, and I had my main's name in my alt's sig.

Only peasants alt post.

Nobody is going to come gank you in game over crap you spew on forums, don't be such a putty tat, show some cajones.



Post With Your Main, Just Not Like This, Its Annoying.

Alt post 'cos my I can happily post about indy and mission stuff and fits and not worry about every ganker putting locations out for a multi-billion isk KM.

Never fussed about 'retribution' but initial corp was 100% carebear with no clue how to PvP (nor would want to)....but I have never attacked someone in forums, which if you do with an alt is pretty cowardly imho.

I can however understand that if you are in a corp/alliance you may want to alt post as your views may not be appreciated or look good on the eve forums.

Ignore whatever they tell you.
They'd never tell you the truth of why they are doing it.

They are COWARDS, because they are afraid of consequences !

My mains alliance leader does not want forum posting with any character with the alliance tag, the opinions of capsuleers and bunnies should not be seen as that of the alliance and people in the alliance should not be made a target because of the opinions of capsuleers and bunnies. Plus the added benefit of people saying 'post with your main' is another enjoyment, the little things that annoy people are funny.

I post on my main.

I can see why people do alt post. I tend to look at the merits of a post and not a corp tag.
