QuoteQuote from: grahamgreene on September 26, 2012, 02:07 amWhat you're stating is actually just as bad as, if not worse than, outing someone on here. Well, that and the fact that if gestaltassault were following proper security procedures such a task would be nigh on impossible.I don't know what happened, so I can't pass judgement on this person's actions. However, member's anonymity is the most important thing in this community, and those who break it will go to that special hell reserved for child molesters and people who speak during movies at the theater.Quote from: Evanescence on September 26, 2012, 06:17 pmI would take issue with you on three points:1) Please know I am not proposing to expose anyone. My comment was in the vein of, "you went to prison? you're lucky you didn't get ass raped". Doesn't mean I think anyone should ass raped. Just means I think the consequences could have been worse.2) I think it's wrong to equate exposing someone here and child molesters. I'm capable of killing people who hurt children. You may be capable of killing someone for exposure but I would not be in support of that.3) It's not "nigh on impossible" for someone to find out who you are. Throughout history and still today on the net, security is mostly about increasing the difficulty of penetration. It's just a matter of how much time and money someone is willing to spend. I choose to buy here because I have weighed the strength of my security against the motivation of others to find me. Hence, best not to add to anyone's motivation if you can help it.1) Yes, the consequences could have been worse, but two wrongs don't make a right. I know you weren't advocating that someone expose gestaltassault, I was simply stating that the idea of doing so would be just as bad, if not worse than what he did.2) a) Your morality and my morality differ somewhat in that you think it's okay to kill someone, whereas I do not, regardless of the circumstances. I'm capable of killing someone but I would not do it because it's not my place to do so, and I wouldn't be able to wipe such an act off my conscience.b) I didn't equate exposing someone here to child molesting, I stated that "member's anonymity is the most important thing in this community, and those who break it will go to that special hell reserved for child molesters and people who speak during movies at the theater." I simply said that they'd go to the same special hell. Along with the people who speak during movies at the theater. I was quoting a character from the TV series "Firefly"; I don't believe in a "heaven" or a "hell".3) No, it's not "nigh on impossible" for someone to find out who you are. That's not what I said. You keep taking everything out of context. I said that "if gestaltassault were following proper security procedures such a task would be nigh on impossible", which remains true. If he is following proper security procedures - which, incidentally I would also encourage you to look into - then, yes, it would be nigh on impossible to find out his personal details.- grahamgreene
