I'm sorry about that. I was just feeling upset because with my name changes I don't think that people have been particularly good with not posting anything to identify the poster. You say in the FAQ that people shouldn't post anything to identify another poster. Maybe you mean RL identifications rather than internet identity identifications? I took it to mean internet identity identifications, however. I really thought that would be respected. But I've been disappointed and hurt about that over and over again. I thought things were getting better... But I don't know. Are people allowed to ID people via Babblemail? I just wish people wouldn't do this. Kind of appreciating that people are entitled to some privacy. If they wanted to know whether the poster had a previous name or if they wanted to know the posters RL identity then they should ask the poster directly and that poster should get to decide whether they want to disclose or not.

> IMO, it's not either-or, the privacy of posters is important, but so is their having some idea of who they're talking to.

Why? I thought you said it was important to give people a fresh start if that was what they wanted. It isn't doing that when people are informing others of their hunches or guesses or whatever via Babblemail.
