    Agreed. That looks like it's way over the line.

    Yep, agreed. The only question is whether Dayton actually gave permission.

    So, action steps? I'm thinking we scrub the reveal and make it clear that any further such disclosure will result in a ban. Thoughts?

    Okay, that took a long time, probably 30 posts required edits, thanks to the quote function. :brood:

    I'd like somebody else to review in case I missed something. Then we can move it back to the Red Room (it's currently in the shelter).

    Same.

    Also, it's damned near impossible to do anything for Dayton, because over the years he's released a biography of personal information and dared people to use it. Now it's coming back on him, and we can only do so much because no one really knows what was released and what wasn't. It's everywhere. So erring on the side of caution is for the best.

    Edited to add: I don't really fault Chad for the information sharing, even though I do agree it was over the line. Dayton makes enemies so easily, gives them the weapons by which to do him harm, and what's worse is he asks them to do something about it. If WF were a physical location, Dayton would be standing naked in the middle of a football stadium, surrounded by hordes of people whom he has handed sharpened daggers, and he would be daring those people to take a stab at him, only to be surprised when he ends up with a hundred thousand cuts.

    He is his own worst enemy.

    For the most part, the headache only comes from the same two people more often than not. I can't imagine what it was like at its heyday.
