I feel that, when you trust a company and give it information about yourself, included in that trust is a nonverbal promise that they will keep it safe. When that promise is broken, especially so easily, I feel that people have a right to be mad.

I guess an analogy would be if you gave a game to a friend, and then his backpack got stolen because he wasn't watching it closely. Sure, had the thief not stolen it, your game would be safe and sound. However, when you loaned it to your friend, there was a nonverbal agreement that he would keep it safe. His lax protection of your game is almost as bad as the thief stealing it.

Please tell me that "typo squatter" means someone who squats on a pile of typos he has made in his posts. Please? Because if so, this is absolutely and wonderfully ironic

Edit: I'm pretty sure we have an equivalent of a forum of sex for the staff here too (I assume that's what he was trying to refer to). Except it's not called "staff sex"

Although it's true that some staff here have *cough* relationships with other staff, so "staff sex" could actually be an applicable forum. :shot:

When I imagine strawberry sex, I see a bowl of strawberries next to the bed (maybe dipped in chocolate) for eating and then probably strawberry-flavored lube. That's just me though.

Who wouldn't want that?

And, of course, we never, ever abuse ANYTHING on this board, do we?

Still, both sides have good points. It would be useful, it could get out of hand. But then couldn't we just remove the privilege?
