Instead of shutting up and letting the FBI look into it in a professional manner, many WR regulars simply can't help fantasizing about seeing Mike Godwin or Sue Gardner in chains. I doubt it helps at all, and I seriously doubt anyone is going to jail regardless of what the FBI recommends to the DoJ.
It definitely doesn't
help, but it probably doesn't hurt so much, either - the WMF folks aren't going to change their opinions of us (or of specific WR posters) simply because of a few more strident comments, of which there are plenty around here. The real question is whether or not it gives them a real conception of the depth of enmity there is towards them, or whether they simply assume it's just the same handful of people in each case, and that all of them are simply insane or whatever. I'd assume the latter, but then again, I never thought Larry Sanger would ever register an account here, either!
Anyway, welcome to WR from me, too... (IMG:
