Names, addresses and telephone numbers were published in that thread. And by the sockpuppet perpetrator. The sockpuppet was bored, created a bunch of drama by demanding a thread get deleted and then posted crap he knew would get the thread deleted. The mods only deleted the thread when there was actual reason to delete, not because of the whim of sh*t-stirrer (most likely a long-term BWW sh*t-stirrer, of which there are at least handful from which to choose). There is no reason to be angry at the mods other than not deleting the and banning the sockpuppet more quickly. Other than that, there was not much to see. Just a sock getting his rocks off and everyone else helping him out, doing exactly what he wanted.
We've seen it before. We'll see it again.
