Completely mad. Somebody stop me.
I think people would rather ignore you.
But I am going to stand up for someone whose privacy you have exploited. You used your administrator powers to get the email of melaniedee, and used Facebook to get her full name. Not funny.
Whilst you're right, I did use my admin powers to satisfy a curiosity, it wasn't an
abuse of powers. Melanie.dee surrendered her e-mail when signing up to FSN, and so long as I don't reveal that, or any private details (and I just fended off an attempt by somebody now, for that matter), I am well within the law of my code of conduct. I simply stipulated that you can't reveal it to anybody. If you feel that's a violation of rights, also consider that melanie.dee said that nobody would ever find out her name, effectively laying down the challenge and partially bringing that upon herself. That being said, I don't even see what I did as wrong, because I regularly look at people's e-mails (in the past it was to determine whether they were bots or not), currently it helps me gain a better understanding of the demographic (many people put 1990 or 1989 in their e-mails). In the past I have identified people previously banned who have signed up and has allowed me to take action.
That I entered that one e-mail into a facebook search to identify someone who was playing funny buggars and going under a different alias was something that I have also done in the past, and in fact, if you must know, I found brogan77 trying to sign up in a similar way after I had initially banned him. Call it a background check if you like, I have not broken any part of the code of conduct. You are not sticking up for anything, Collin.
