What relief do you presume that I seek? I participate on this mailing list mainly for education, not for relief.
You appeared to be registering a complaint (for which you would presumably be seeking relief). It's entirely unclear what your educational purpose was.
If I was going to register a complaint I would have been a lot more clear about the details of what happened. The fact is I don't even know all the details myself (though I do know more than I'm releasing publically), and in fact it is this lack of details which I think is one of the biggest problems with the checkuser policy, and to get back on topic, why I find it particularly important to use Tor.
That checkusers have the ability to spy on Wikipedians and checkuser policy forbids other checkusers from revealing the fact that they did so is a major problem with Wikipedia.
