I remember that post and also ones on iLie where people were asking others how many pills should I take. That's more dangerous than asking on a message board, how much money should I invest and on what?

Imagine if someone got very sick, had a stroke or died, maybe unrelated but shit happens and blamed it all on another poster or a mod. Heck JPeckerhead blames all his problems on others so it's not unheard of.

I would bet some people will read Q&A on Amazon as an example and actually think it's the company answering the questions. Same with message boards.
