Unless, of course, you actually use "XYZ" (which perhaps ASTalumna06 should have done instead of using real names, even in a "don't do this" example).

Yes, which I completely understand. I thought it was clear that I made it up, but oh well. Live and learn. I think it's the inordinate number of "special" people on Greekchat lately... They're throwing things off. And making me so angry I can't think straight.

Sometimes it is hard to tell online when somebody is being tongue in cheek. I did think she was pretty clear though.

True, but her entire post provided enough context clues to figure out what was going on. Whoever PM'd her probably skimmed the post and got upset when she saw her letters.
