Oh come, come guys isn't all this too obvious >@@(*&)
Real Life Example:
I joined Blue Feb '12 and being new to forums I was a bit naive in that I used my business email address which contained part of my authentic first name Antonia/Toni
The only ones on Blue with access to my abbreviated first name of 'Toni' are admin/mods, past and present, Patti and Susan. This would include Gladys from his admin/mod days. On 28th May Gladys had a Beltdown with Caroline. On 29th a new poster with username 'Toni' posted around 6 derogatory posts on Red slagging off in the main Caroline. The posts were swiftly removed and 'Toni' is no longer. In her infinite wisdom Caroline jumped to the obvious conclusion that I was behind it.

http://jeremybamberforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,5385.msg234924.html#msg234924Interesting Questions/Points1. Puglove/Tim sometimes the obvious isn't always the right conclusion?
2. Is PM exposure any worse than a mod/admin using knowledge gained to secure authentic id's and then make derogatory posts aimed at another mod knowing full well another poster would take the flack?
3. Caroline are you going to apologise?
4. NGB are you going to ban Gladys for life. Period no messing as the come back kid? JP was banned for revealing your authentic id.
5. NGB are you going to tighten security re posters' data ensuring only those that can be TRUSTED have access to it?
6. Lookout you accuse myself, puglove and Tim of being infantile, nasty, spiteful and in my case not to be trusted with confidential information. May I ask your views on the above?
