    hmm .. I wish I could believe this, but I can't ... not today .

    Secondly, you have no idea who anyone is over the internet . They could have government or police resources to use ....

    ... If Xanthos (or anyone else) has posted personal information or pm'd
    these to Skeeter then this is his problem ... If you don't trust anyone, don't give him/her personal info of you - as simple as that -

    As for Michelle ... Well, despite not being best buds, I'm sure she could do better then Xanthos

    Apparently she is a lecturer at the university I am studying at. In the PFC way back there is my (uncommon) first name and it's no secret that I just finished my first year of engineering. Combine this and skeeter can quite easily find out everything about me including uni grades, address, parents names etc.

    Now Russ has stated in Annoucements that posting of personal details in the public forums (specifically full name but I assume it applies to address and so forth) is against the rules unless that person has themself posted their name in the public forums (private forum or PM don't count for this).

    Legally speaking, if it is clear to a reasonable person reading your post to whom is being referred, then use of a nickname does not absolve you of libel/slander/threats/etc.

    Posting personal information about someone is not acceptable. If this information is voluntarily put in the public domain, then there should be no issue, BUT if that person then requests such information is NOT to be made available, then that request will be respected, and all content removed.

    In this case it is clear XanthosNZ does NOT want any information about him posted here (even if it is in the public domain already which it may or may not be) and everyone posting in the thread is well aware of his wishes. Therefore, anyone then proceeding to post any of his personal information, including real world names, will be faced with a site ban. Threatening behaviour will result in the same.

    Shouldn't those posts with his real name be deleted?

    Wow, I have never imagined to agree with you on something without 'effing' or even insulting you ...

    But I'm on your side here, if that is the case then Skeeter must not post private information about you in the forums and if she does, she should be banned permanently without second thoughts

    You know, I can't believe there's not a psychiatric institution in aussie that would welcome you. Are you sure you've looked everwhere? Look again. If it doesn't work out for you, I'll see if I can convince any swedish psychiatric ward to take you in. Ok? πŸ™‚

    You know, we have swedes here too. We grow them in the ground down in southland , where they need a good hard frost to give them flavour. After harvesting they are mainly used for cattle fodder.

    But the big advantage our swede has over the European swede is that our swede's can distinguise the subtle differences between our flag and the Aussie flag, despite being buried in the ground nine months of the year. More than can be said for the stocken variety.

    Touché.

    A good insult comparing me with a swedish turnip. I'm impressed. Fact remains, you seem mental from where I stand. Consider getting some help, will you?

    Or I'll dig up everything I can on you and publish it where you least expect it. Uhum...

    There is still at least one post by you in the forums where his full name is disclosed. I am not going to point you to it for obvious reasons. I have alerted the post and sent feedback a day ago.
