What has GC taught you?

If her name is in the email address, it's very easy to figure out. I'm sure the GC alum are more than willing to let their chapter know about this at the school where she's rushing.

The only thing that worries me about this, and I'm not really that worried about it, is the possibility that maybe someone else from here or her old campus who didn't like her created an email profile with her name. Granted that sounds pretty crazy and elaborate, but so does getting other people's ritual before you rush. It's just a question of who the crazy person is: the name in the email address or a different person who created it.

Perhaps we should start a GC mysteries thread.

I can think of at least twice that people have posted awful threads in another person's name trying to ruin that person's recruitment.

That individuals name was not publicly posted here on GC but it's a strange coincidence that since this person was outed, they haven't posted on GC and all of a sudden, their posts & messages in that forum group have mysteriously disappeared as well.

Just out of curiosity...when you're talking about the person being "outed" are you referring to the posts in this thread? (Which just happened last evening, so that person not posting on GC since then could just be a coincidence.) Or are you talking about an "outing" that occurred in the other forum where the rituals are being traded?

(No particular reason for asking, aside from the fact that I suspect I know who you guys are talking about and was just curious to see if my hunch was correct. lol )

This one. It could be a coincidence but I doubt it. We'll have to wait and see. This person was particularly active lately but has been suprisingly quiet since the posts started yesterday.

Well, she's already switched usernames once...who's to say she HASN'T posted since...just under another name.

I see.

The only other question I have is how people knew for sure that it was the same individual on the other forum. In the posts on the other forum, did the person have the same user name as on GC? Or did the person reference GC? Or is it that someone here on GC already knew her real name, and thus put 2+2 together that it was this individual?

I guess I would just want to be certain that the information was correct/verifiable before condemning a person. (Not to say that anyone was acting without just cause...obviously there are people who have more details than I do!) I'm just curious how the connection was made between a poster on another forum and a poster on GC - I'm assuming perhaps it was one of the scenarios I listed above?
