By the way, I find the people there to be not only intelligent and charming, but also quite witty and well-informed. (And then there is the oddest sense of deja vu, as if I had known them in a previous life, you know what I mean?)

Your scary friends have a thread open to the public in which they talk about hunting a Freeper down in real life. For what reason? Don't they usually hide these so people can't read what they are really like?.

And to whomever I missed from the pinglist used for the post to which I am responding.

"Your scary friends have a thread open to the public in which they talk about hunting a Freeper down in real life. For what reason? Don't they usually hide these so people can't read what they are really like?"

Logic would provide the answers to your questions. The discussion is open exactly so that it can be viewed by anyone seeking the truth.

I see that you are following Robert Heinlein's maxim that the slickest way to lie is to tell just enough of the truth, and then to remain silent. His advice is very effective.

However, what you did not relate is an important aspect. The referenced "hunting down" was a hypothetical, and the immediate response to that possibility was a resounding negative from all quarters. Many of those who post there did not "flee" as was suggested in an earlier post but instead were "cast out" from this forum.

The site that you would vilify is a staunch supporter of the right of people to speak freely in open discussion, and thereby to reveal the weaknesses of their arguments as well as what passes for their faith.

Anyone who wishes may examine what is being said there, and decide about it on its merits. I would not recommend relying on the erstwhile reporters who may claim to have waded through the swamp of our filth to bring out their reports. That is an exaggeration, as most of what gets posted there is rather dry.

Further, there is no objection of which I'm aware to the carrying out of information or opinion, (as long as copyright restrictions are observed, of course), but it is the fervent wish of all that the information be as accurate as possible.

If you think that anything may be slightly exaggerated, as I have suggested it may be, then any and all may verify the truth for themselves. Don't be afraid. The tortoises cannot pursue anyone very effectively.
