And, you don't even have to personally abuse your own checkuser power, as shown by the recent e-mail where a user offered up his check user results to others who e-mailed him, so they wouldn't personally have to sully themselves by snooping--unbelievable.
What the whuh? Link?
It was a fairly recent post, in the past week or so, where something came up about checkuser, and a list member offered to share his results of the check user with others with the privilege so they wouldn't have to look it up.
That you didn't even notice is what I am talking about, that this post went by without a blink, is what I am talking about--there are no privacy considerations, a little sharing of what was revealed is all fun and fair.
KP,
Could you be referring to David's own post of 8/3/07, subj: Moving Forward in which he said:
"BTW, I assume some checkusers have looked over the harassing edits (the less than innocent variety of query). If any of them would like to but feel they shouldn't be the one to, email me or checkuser-l.
