From the rules:
7. Do not post personal data without permission. Personal information (such as real life name, address or photo) of a user may not be posted without the express consent of the person or people concerned. Any posting of one's own personal data is entirely at the user's own risk, and when posted to the forum, is considered to be consent.
Did Neored have actual consent, as in consent in normal English, from Realak to post the personal data? Answer: no.
Is it stupid to define "consent" in such way that if you in any way post something that indirectly reveals your personal data, you are forever and ever giving "consent" for every reader in the forum (even after you quit the game) to spread that personal information as wildfire? Yes, very stupid.
Why is it stupid? Because the whole point of a rule limiting spreading of personal information is to protect the individual. What beneficial purpose does it serve to remove the right for the individual to decide when he/she wants his personal information no longer to be spread through forum?
Mentally retarded people deserve protection and since it per definition takes longer time for a retarded person to reach the same conclusion as a normally gifted person, the right to have one's "No" respected should never be abolished.
