I hope OP and other who are genuinely interested to know the reason then you have it.
It was little off to see the topic created for it too. I did not want it to publicize at all.
OP could PM me instead since he knew it was me.
It was unnecessary, in my opinion. I think we should all respect each other's options, opinions and position.
It was your option/choice, for the reasons you think is valid. That is enough. We have to respect!
It really was unnecessary to put pressure on a well-recognized member of the community and always accessible. Really, a simple PM would have avoided 90% of what was said in this thread.
I think this story of yours can serve as an example:
When a user requests anonymity and is granted, we must respect it even knowing who asked for that anonymity.Royse777 go strong! The community remains with you, just as you are with the community.

Or the user asked out of curiosity to know what is actually happened and asked this as public may serve the answer for everyone who had the same curiosity of what happened all of a sudden.
Its not a secret anymore but still for the privacy reasons the creator name hidden in the thread and that's it.
