Moreschi,
Brandt has a history of off wiki harassment. Anyone who has encountered such
harassment from people know not to walk into a situation and ask for it
again.
Your comment that the participation of privacy socks was demeaning others
just by their participation alone.
I don't think there is a problem with editors occasionally making a
comment from a position of anonymity. The nature of the comment,
however, is important. If there are administrators for whom I hold
otherwise high regard, who choose to use anonymity to make
inflammatory comments about the actions of other administrators, I
think that's an abuse of anonymity. Again, the target of the
inflammatory statements was *not* Brandt.
Ryulong did not do the right thing. He senselessly put people in danger
Come now, how did Ryulong's actions put people in danger? His block
*prevented* them from editing Wikipedia. We still don't know their
identities (although as a matter of course, given the similarity of
the inflammatory accusations by socks, I hope the checkusers have
investigated this affair for possible abusive socking).
