[Fists] A Simple note on QSLing

I remember reading something about some groups not accepting as
'valid' a card that is not 'printed' with QTH information.  I did not
read in detail, but it seemed that because the stamp could be forged
by anyone, the card would not be considered 'valid'.  Would this
really be an issue?
