People will just have to set up a proxy in case some nutter decides to hunt down those who they disagree with, which will make administration even more difficult.

At the moment the forum gives the impression it has been invaded by stealth hackers.

Simon merely invited people to click on a pic. He is unlikely to be interested in anyone who isn't hunting him down like a psycho. The forum didn't approve of this nor sanction it. I am sticking up for Simon resorting to it because if I were being stalked and threatened, bullied and lied about I'd want to know who was doing it too. He has that right in his capacity as an individual. And these tactics are resorted to because it is virtually impossible to get anyone to help you if you become the target of a nutjob with cyber assassination on its tiny twisted mind.

I have closed this thread. The matter has been dealt with - time to move on!
