Now, I'm far from the infosec equivalent of said serial killer (John?), but the "logical" FAQ entry is effectively saying Sec.SE does not want to talk with my sort as I may be labeled as a "pirate, never-do-well, or criminal", but I am under the impression that my contributions have been well received. What I do outside of the site, on my free time, should be completely irrelevant as long as my questions and answers are constructive and helpful to this community at large. | |

But we are too 'sissy' to do so because political correctness, freedom of speech, and pretending that no one knows you are a dog on the internet"? | |

| Apr 23, 2013 at 10:44 | comment | added | FirstName LastName | @Gilles - i agree with that. | |
| Aug 12, 2012 at 18:45 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | I disagree with your conclusion. Ye who are a pirate, teach me. I don't want to meet low-grade villains, but then I don't want to meet well-meaning simpletons either. | |
