...about the posting of users' personal information on this site.
There has been an unacceptable surge of this happening lately. We've had this discussion before, just three months ago. But alas, that is an eternity in internet time.
Also, we understand that our userbase is growing exponentially, so it's time to reiterate: DO NOT POST USERS' PERSONAL INFORMATION. EVER. NO phone numbers, NO email addresses, NO real names, NO blood types, NO SSN's, NO facebook pics or profiles, NO mothers' maiden names, NOTHING. This is a ban-on-sight offense, and lately we have banned multiple users for posting personal info.
We're not going to condone this kind of behavior. If you feel the urge to arm yourself with torches and pitchforks and personal information ... step away from the computer, take a deep breath, and remember:
This is the Internet. You don't know these people. If you heard that some guy down the street was trying to scam someone on YouTube or lied about the time they made mayonnaise in their bathtub or pretended to be a time traveler from the future, would you go over there and egg their house and throw bricks through their window and kidnap their puppy? Seriously?
Posting personal information is the Internet version of vandalism and abuse and will not be tolerated. If you see it, report it and message the admins, aka the moderators of /r/reddit.com.
tl;dr Nope, you'll have to read the post.
