First, people get upset with Dashira and start trying to hunt him down with
the express purpose of really Ruining His Day(tm). Then Walter Gilman steps
on the scene with a little psychotic babbling and now people are trying to
trace him as well, with some "I have a friend who may be interested" tacked
on. I'll leave out Jen&Gabe since that case history is old news.
Time was that Shadowland was a forum for information exchange, however
braindamaged. Now it seems to be the chopping block that posters put their
head on at some distinct risk to themselves. I can understand the value of
"thinking before one posts", but the recent spate of trying to tracking posters
down strikes me as a _little_ excessive...
