My Les Paul, the only nitro-finished guitar I have, still bears little marks from being left on the stand for extended periods, before I figured out what was happening. Nowadays, I have a stand that wears socks: I cut a small holes in a pair of dark gray socks so I could slip one over the neck support, and one over the body support. Now when the LP come out of the case, that's the stand it uses.

As far as neck warpage from storing a guitar on a stand, unless there's some oddball external factor at work, I'd bet money that this would not happen. Think about it...most cases have a neck cradle too, so are we any better off keeping our guitars cased, if in fact this was an issue?
