Oh Hostile Fetus, they really could have used you during that first season of Friends. But I guess you were suckling at your momma’s teat at that point.

when an entire message board sees fit to accuse me of having that grudge

I hadn’t, but based on this post, I’m considering starting.
Uh oh. If Hostile accuses Bryan of not understanding hyperbole my brain aneurysms are going to go nuclear!

The admins were made aware of a complaint. Surely that complaint was in confidence.

The specific nature of the complaint was never, to my knowledge, revealed. So, as far as that goes, the confidence was kept. Not to defend Tuba’s actions on that front, but let’s not accuse her of things she didn’t do.

No, we don’t. We, mods and administrators, don’t know your real name anymore than we know if you’re an extremely clever dog.

Fair enough - I can accept that mods and admins generally may not have access to that. But someone at Chicago Reader must, because my credit card payment went through in my real name.
That always makes me nervous. It’s not that I specifically distrust admins, but I am all too aware that they are just regular other people. And regular other people can go just as weird/freaky/stalky as a non-admin/mod regular other people.
