Yeah posts like that I will remove. It sucks to be banned for joking around and not even doing anything malicious, but when it comes to serious PI like that I'm not going to let it sit there while I try to figure out what to do with it.   Was PMing him about it, and if he hadn't continued to post it as I considered the matter he never would have been warned.

I'm starting to feel that the verification process is an impractical way of handling PI.

Excellent thread, Lanny.

Let's see what Equatits makes of this malarky.

[EDIT] It has been staring at this thread for a good 10 minutes now. Just... staring. Creepy.

I guess I'm the bad guy now :(

Lanny I know you think this PI stuff is all ridiculous, lame, and impossible to enforce.  Some people though have had their PI leaked against their will, and suffered strange RL consequences for it.  I received death threats in the mail years ago.  It's some scary stuff.

And really, is it such a big deal not being allowed to post fake PI?  Don't let spec troll you into getting banned imo :/

This is likely one of those thing we'll have to agree to disagree on.

I'm not trying to antagonize you here equanimity, do whatever you think is in accordance with the site rules. I'm just trying to make a point about how silly the rules are, and if I get banned for it then my point will be made and I'll reg up an alt, no biggie.

And I agree, getting your PI leaked sucks and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. However these rules don't stop that, the penalty is literally nothing and a dozen people saw that I posted before you edited it.


So now I'd like to point out that my post has been edited without verification happening. This raises some questions. How long do we have to wait for spectral to reply before I can post that info again? What happens if I post it again (doing so won't be breaking any rules)? Since you've already verified something else is actually spectral's real name, why are you verifying this as well?

I have more than one death threat just at this forum

You aren't doing life right if you don't have people who hate you so bad they want to kill you

I wish I had some of the death threats I have received over the phone recorded somewhere.  I have had some hilarious ones.

Why did you ban RisiR but only edit Lanny's post? Did Spectral confirm that wasn't his PI?

Are you going to edit this post or ban the user, Zek?

I bet the redacted parts weren't even PI which makes it all that more hilarious

both of these you are obviously acting outside of what you're supposed to be doing and setting a fine example of poor moderating

The suspect has literally confessed, Zek!

Act, act now! Ban, edit, shake your tranny tits, don't just sit there; do something!

If Lanny insists that is in fact my personal info, we can only take him on his word that it is and he should be banned for posting the private information of a member. If the board has no element of anonymity, no integrity as far as focus on content over kidiot, that will surely keep new users away, especially in boards like Bad Ideas.
