>I am concerned with the turn this forum has taken recently. Under directives from the UT management, I had to fix my information so it accurately reflects my locale. Having received threatening offline messages in the past which were only possible due to the information presented in my profile here, I was reluctant to do so.

Hi Tracy,

I just cannot understand that these kind of things are really happening.
Recently WoodyW reported simmilar thing, and now you as well;
I mean sending messages to employers, abusive private messaging etc.
Can that be real ?? If so why did'nt you make it public ?

I believe this is one of things that should not be tolerated ever. If sender is is anonimous then I don't believe serious employer would care about it nor should you personally, but if there is real names/faces attached to it then you should make them public and let community know who they are.

As for Kevin;
Aldough I did not like everything he wrote, I don't believe his posting was real reason for banning. Anybody knows what was it ?
