True. I've come across www.socion.info, and it looks pretty professional. Very good layout, very easy to navigate. That's a good thing, yes, but it makes the sort of misunderstanding MysticSonic described a bit more likely.Originally Posted by MysticSonic

There's one thing I find puzzling. I'm new here, so perhaps I just missed something, but I thought I'd just ask.
What do you mean by "what sort of authority should demand" that you do that? It's just a thing that's done by scientists and professionals everywhere. You give your credentials. End of story. No attack on anyone's credibility. You just state the facts for the other person's information. No offence meant, none taken.Originally Posted by rmcnew
Being an amateur isn't something you "brand yourself" with. There are plenty of amateurs who achieve a very high amount of expertise. I'd say people know that. I don't have any problems about reading texts developed by amateurs, and I don't think people in general have one. Your website is well designed and your texts look professional, and that's something that will always inspire respect. It will make people ready to listen to what you've got to say, no matter if you've got some letters to add to your name or not.

What would change if you said so on your website? Just a question. As I said, I'm puzzled by your vehemence.
