You may not object to having your name posted in a publicly available medium, depicting conduct that, depending upon the perceptions of the observer, place you in an unfavorable and quite possibly false light. Depending on the intensitity of the interaction, the poster's motivation may be based on malice.

While you seem to be unusually tolerant of attacks on your reputation, not all passengers and flight crew are likely to feel the same.

Indeed, an aggrieved party is likely to seek legal recourse not only against the poster, but our generous host. Would you like to see FlyerTalk shut down over such a public airing of dirty laundry?

That is why KathyWdrf wanted to clarify whether a joke was being made. Because publicy posting the name of a poor-performing airline employee is a very bad idea.
