Use and misuse of Live Chat identities
Michael, I am really enjoying the Flyertalk live chat. At one point early Friday morning (4-21) we had 10 people on chatting and having fun.
But I am very distressed about something that I have brought up before. The lack of protection for Flyertalk I-D's
It has come to my attention from anonymous sources that there are TROLLS who have been using my name/Flyertalk i-d when talking on the Live Chat. Of course when I am NOT there.
I sincerely hope that there was nothing dirty or stupid posted under my name on Live Chat (I don't know what was posted.) And I sincerely hope my name is not being misused or used to attack people or possibly writing offensive posts are going on that Live Chat.
I ALSO DO NOT APPRECIATE ANYONE HERE USING MY NAME/FLYERTALK I-D!! IT IS *MINE* AND *MINE ALONE!!!* SO IF YOU WANT TO PLAY AROUND USE SOMEONE ELSES!!!
I would not want to get an e-mail sometime from someone blasting me for some comment on the live chat that I would never post.
THERE ARE SEVERAL THOUSAND FLYERTALK ID'S ON HERE! GO USE THEM AND LEAVE MINE ALONE! HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF I STARTED MAKING OFFENSIVE POSTS UNDER YOUR NAME!
AND THE FIRST PERSON WHO TELLS ME TO "LIGHTEN UP" WILL GET A HAIRBALL FROM ME!
Thank you for listening.
If you have any stinging comments like the last time I made a certain post about children in airline seats e-mail me privately.
