   Are you aware that there appears to be a two-tier system in place there?   
      
   Surely as an Apple hardware and software user yourself you'd be an   
   advocate of a forum hosted by Apple itself?

   THAT is what was being asked about!   
      
   I've asked you about the subject matter many times! You invariably brush   
   the matter aside, but I don't understand why you do that.   
      
   Can you actually sign in to the ASC forums? If so, do you use your true   
   Apple Account (ID, as was) or do you use an "Alias"?
