They know that ABF is you, definitely. You post exactly the same way here as you do there.

How was that?

I don't understand why LeaLu was like chased off the site. What did he/she actually do? Were they banned or just chased off? If a man wants to identify himself as a woman then that should be allowed. Its kinda a shame that something thats probably quite personal to her/him is laid open to scrutiny by the whole site. My respect for Ro-gan is less for uncovering LeaLu, when there was no reason to uncover it. LeaLu wasnt hurting anyone. The fact that LeaLu was a respected member of the forums makes it worse. Here's the thing with LeaLu/Har!Bandit--
If it was just some guy pretending to be a woman: No Big Deal.
But, LL/H!B took it that next level. He was having IM's with a couple people outside of 'Realms. One of those people was married and thinking of leaving his wife for LL/H!B.
Of course, as far as I know, they still believed LL/H!B was a woman. But, can you imagine the rude awakening they get when LL/H!B calls it off for fear of being discovered... or... actually shows up as a man!
Anyway, I felt it was my duty to get involved at this point. Pretending to be a woman and wrecking someone's marriage are two different things.

DUDE!!!! Seriously, you have less respect for Ro-Gan for uncovering a LIE!!!! WTF??? There is a certain amount of blind faith on the internet and we (for the most part) take what others say on face value and face value alone. If I lie to you I fully undersatnd the risks involved and would not take that action if I thought I was going to be caught, however if I was caught I would eat some crow and deal with it. LeaLu was not "chased" off of Realms he took her leave on his own and I'm sure would be welcomed back. As many people know there are many of us at Realms who do NOT tolerate any bullshit this includes singleing somone out for no reason, being prejudiced against members of the community, making false accusations, and making bogus trades/deals. Ro-Gan did not make fun of Lealu ion any way he mearly pointed out the fact that she lied to us about his sex. And while they would have faced intolerance, both the intolerance and the assholes who have nothing better to do than to make their self feel better by belittleing someone else would have been dealt with. The sad fact is this would have taken so much time that Lealu would have felt the pain of being embarrased (and rightfully so but not to the extent of being called names) on a daily basis. And he obviously could not deal with that mentally. In summary Ro-Gan wasn't wrong for "outing" Lealu, Lealu was more than welcome to stay a member of the boards, and the idiots who would have PMed and publicly called him names WOULD have been dealt with in time. Keep all this in mind the next time you (not directed to anyone in paticular) call something gay as a joke. (or any othe deragatory remark that could offend someone.

Also, let me just add to the person you were responding to:
In my investigation of LL/H!B and outing I never made fun of him and never wanted to. I didn't think it was right deceiving everyone and would have even kept my mouth shut if Aaron didn't stab me in the back. Also, if it wouldn't have been for that one Mod going to leave his family over LL/H!B, I also would just have kept silent.
But, I felt this was something that had to be dealt with.

Yeah I know.
I love over-simplifying things.
I love just generally having an opinion, then getting over it, when I realise its crap.

Ahh the young mind of a man who has never experienced anything in the outside world. Eventhough the above has to sarcasm, I cant help but see a bit of idealistic hope in there too. If this was a perfect world, the term "Broken Home" would only mean the times your toilet and water heater are on the fritz. Of course that is not true.
