The point is, it takes only a little bit of imagination to get around it.
Ummmm. What would mine be, then? I could use a laugh
Yours is very difficult, stawka. Did you know I have a fire-ant problem here?
I might ask someone to arrange work killing ants.

Don't even need the Queensland reference. I reckon tech and Navy would do it.
I joined a collectors forum a few years ago that I soon discovered had members I'd bought items from on eBay. As a new member I began reading old posts to familiarise myself with how the forum ran.....and came across an entry re a scarce item a member had listed on eBay. The item sold for a good price (it was something that didn't come up very often) and members of the forum congratulated the seller on the winning amount. It was all quite weird following its progress....because I was the buyer. 
Fortunately I was as happy with the price I paid, as the seller was!

I stuffed mine up anyway. What I should have said was that I lived at Yeppoon on the CQ coast etc. If you were naming & shaming me, I don't see how tech and Navy would be very obvious, except to those who knew what my avatar looked like, and in the vast majority of cases, the people who are named in these forums aren't normally contributors so the entire user ID needs to be spelled out somehow. I still believe the best method is to use the offending party's user ID in a reply to their feedback, then simply direct the other forum members to it.

Yes, using text in the same colour as the background would work, although it wasn't all that long ago that the eBay forums had alternating background colours - one white, the next grey, and so on. If you'd tried it there and somebody had an earlier post removed by the mods, you'd be well and truly caught out when the background changed.

Is that meant to be vermin?
Poor Vernon's.
