On the off chance that was aimed at me, I just want to point out the following.
1. I had a good look through the said the group and I didn't publicise anything other than what was a direct insult/trolling of fellow players. Yes, we all knew crockett and wig didn't see eye to eye, but things that had been said, laughed at and subsequently undefended by his own 'team mates' had to be told to him, I would've done the same for you.
2. Being someone who has done the unthinkable, I also felt swop needed to know that his picture had been used after pulling it off the web in the same way that got me perma-banned. Yes there were differences, I posted said picture on the forum and deserved all the penalties associated with that (and apologised publicly and privately to the 'victim'). But within the group, his picture was having very vile thinks being said and once again, not one member stood back and said, hey guys, this is wrong.
3. Although I many of us saw private email addresses, as far as I'm aware not one person had the information used in any way, shape or form. So who knows what threat you see whip being to your security/identity.
4. I believe it was wrong to look through the group pages but it was more like a pupil getting access to the head masters office that cyber thieves trying to steal information to profit from.
5. I have a lot of respect for Whiplash, he along with very few people here is as straight forward as you see, yes he found the group but what actual damage was done other than the wrong being tipped off about their own team 'mates'!
Please understand that this has been very overblown and although it was childish, it wasn't exactly a crime against humanity.
I like you PH and haven't said anything to offend you, I just wish I didn't see so many MoMs taking advantage of a lack of moderation, making threats and swearing at any given opportunity.
