Let me ask, did you pick a new name?As someone that is trying to not have my SB name and this one connected, there are things I say that may connect them but I do not want someone to call me out by my previous name
Ask my in private like many others have yeah.Let me ask, did you pick a new name?
Did you reference posts and actions you did on SB here on TS?
Did you discuss the exact same topics and copy/paste arguments from SB?
If the answer is yes to any of those questions, why should I be punished for figuring out your ID and asking about it? I would really like the mods/staff to respond to my earlier questions about where the line is drawn on soft-doxxing. Since this is a rule that has never existed before I would request very clear and explicit guidelines. Otherwise the only assumption I can make is that I am okay to guess people's IDs based on the evidence presented by the people themselves without any punishment or consequence.
Well make sure you refer to me by my Sietch username not my SB username. It is meant to be secret and I don't want them connected. Since no clarification has been given, even that reference would be considered soft doxxing.Following this new rule is simply impossible.
This would require every user to refer to other users by their chosen Username or a related acronym etc!?!?!
Do you not see how this is impossible to do?!
Because I haven't yet..!
You're literally the reason this rule got started.Using Sietch usernames on the Sietch is literally the easiest thing to do. . . the username is literally in front of your face, is automatically quoted and tagged, etc.
That person sounds incredibly stupid. They should be banned for being that stupid. Still waiting on the limits of the soft doxxing rule from the staff. I really need my questions answered and want to know if I should report people who use my SB user name here??You're literally the reason this rule got started.
Because after posting in the same style and telling people what your job is, And where you work, on both boards, staff decided to ban one of our users for making the easy connection.
If you don't want your identity being exposed, then don't post information that links you.
I'd you weren't under Zoe's protection, we probably wouldn't even have this rule.
It is not difficult to comprehend.The deliberate obtuseness on the part of some posters is causing the Boot to be tempted to start stomping just on general principle. We have enforced this very rule on behalf of both right and left wing posters, and it has been enforced almost from the very beginning of this board (the first temp ban of this nature was last year against a leftist poster who engaged in this very behavior). If this is too difficult for you to comprehend then the Boot sincerely doubts that anything any of the mod staff says can get through to you.
My issue is that the stated purpose of the rule is to not discover the IDs of people who don't want to be discovered. The problem is that if people make any effort they won't be discovered.

This a bit like preferred pronoun enforcement which I consider an attack on individual liberty and reality itself and to my knowledge the Sietch doesn't enforce.
So I'm not understanding this. Unless its what I said above. A deliberate attempt by the staff to obfuscate their true intentions while shielding their friends and rounding up and lynching users they don't like.
I dont care about the preferred pronoun comparison. This has nothing to do with trans/gender identities and everything to do with apparent harassment and soft doxxing.
Context, holding a metaphorical gun to someone's head and demanding they respect pronouns = holding a metaphorical gun to someone's head and demanding under penalty of retribution that they deny the evidence of who a person is right in front of their faces.
But whatever, you can have the last word. If calling people by their username is too much and putting a "metaphorical" gun to peoples heads then I doubt talking about it will convince people otherwise. Happy hunting and harassing!
However, if you're hiding who you are here, joining a board of exiles who are here solely to escape leftwing techno tyranny, doxing and slander and who advocate for free speech (Everyone here except the majority of the staff seems to actually hold those values..Even the misguided amongst you). I would argue anyone who joins seeking to conceal their SB identity is a spy for the SB staff and has come here with malicious intent.
And as for me having the last word...You gray names are putting an awful lot of effort into trying to discredit a few of us more outspoken users .
Kinda wonder why that is...It's a thing I've only begun to notice. Every time a knife is slid into one of our ribs and a mod is there to facilitate a brigade attempt..there's one of you holding the grip.
