No, I didn't miss your cited post.

I have been rooting around trying to find another of your posts wherein (I believe) you said your use of Rambi's real name was a mistake, and that you didn't realize you had even done it. I can't now find that post among the flurry now popping up. In any case, we all make mistakes in haste for which you should not be criticized.

I am less aware than you as to how often Rambi reveals her real name, but I have seen some examples. IMO this is not the point. I believe that when a person uses an alias, that alias should be strictly respected in all posts which refer to the person. More than just being a belief of mine, I think that this is an important principle for a public message board which should never be violated (one violation leads inevitably to more violations)

If the whole thing was an inadvertent mistake, then there is no blame to be assigned.
