Also, what is it with people still being bothered with Offkai staff knowing their name and address? They already know, you furnished them with those details and more when you bought your ticket.
I think its just absurd that for whatever reason, unlike most other cons, whatever they use to verify M&G tickets at the venue itself is insufficient compared to other events. To the point where they need extra verificationI get that it's mostly jokes, but how would the "deporting illegals from Offkai" scenario even work?
Foreigners, even those staying illegally, can just bring ID from their home country and still visit the M&G unless Offkai staff start asking to see your Visa.

The announcement only says they'll be checking the IDs, not saving a copy of the ID. Other cons like Anime Impulse and Anime Boston have had similar rules and all the staff did was glance at it to make sure "Jenny Tayla" or "Michael Hunt" was on the list for the correct M&G at X specific time slot.Stop being a bootlicker. There is a major difference between a convention having an abstract notion that someone is connected to an account and having a copy of their licensed government-issued ID provided in a manner that allows them to effortlessly cross-reference it and turn it into a hard dox.
I'm going to assume those other cons weren't staffed by people who've been running gayops against specific guests they don't like for at least two years straight.

Offkai staff has a lot to answer for but I don't think this is one of them.

Unless Pekora was also on the guestlist, you could recognise Proctor's laugh a mile off.I stand corrected then, if its normal then ehh
Unless you out yourself as your online username or have retardedly shown your face online under your shitter handle, how could they recognize you? Even the proctor himself has only shown so far a blurry arm pic, is there any way you could get name and facedoxed from just flashing your ID as verification?
A faggy laugh shouldnt stand out in the middle of california, i feel like its part of the natural soundscape at thst pointUnless Pekora was also on the guestlist, you could recognise Proctor's laugh a mile off.
Not trusting offkai staff is understandable and I won't fault anyone for that. If such a thing does happen, I'll take the L. However, the ID policy in of itself is pretty common.I'm going to assume those other cons weren't staffed by people who've been running gayops against specific guests they don't like for at least two years straight.

OffKai is staffed by petty, malicious liars. What they say they're doing and what they're actually doing don't necessarily line up; regardless of policy, if a rogue volunteer (or staff member, as we know the rot goes all the way up to the top) wants to start writing down names, dates of birth, hometowns etc. of people who visit a certain meet-and-greet to weaponise against a vtuber they don't like there is absolutely nothing stopping them - and it would absolutely not be out of character for them, given what we already know about their consistently unprofessional conduct.
