This post is an advisory to users that your username is connected to whatever you write in anon subs.
What you write can be seen by one or more devs who’ve been given that special access. But what you may not know is that they can and do use it against you as they’ve done with me in the past and as recently as yesterday. And one or more of those users who have this ability are part of SBBH.
Some history: One of the SBBH members had a hissy fit with me over a year ago and is probably the same user who would “miraculously” happen to know it was me when I would write certain things in anon subs in the past. I’d write something and they’d make a snarky remark revealing that they knew were talking to my account. It wasn’t a huge deal but it made me aware that my username could be seen by one or more users with this special access.
Back to present day: I’d never bothered to get caught up in SBBH drama until about a week ago when I started needling them in anon subs with a comment here or there regarding their questionable activities on voat.
It didn’t take long for one of them to take the bait and clearly refer to me when making this remark about my recent comments:
http://archive.is/eBPYZ
My account is exactly 2.7 years old. Whoever wrote that comment was a fool; for so obviously ‘giving away’ that they could see it was me writing those comments (showing their hand), and to give such a sensitive shit over what I wrote (notice it took anti-SBBH comments for them to get fresh and reveal themselves).
Let this story be a warning to any of you that this ‘special access’ to see which user is writing “anon” comments creates an unfair advantage and in the wrong hands can be used against you. At the same time, these privileged few are able to enjoy the ability to hide in anon subs themselves.
@PuttItOut, users will never be free to “have their say” in anon subs until everyone but you is stripped of the ability to see who’s posting what in so-called anon subs.

Edit: Hey, cool! My post got a "Speculation" flair. Perhaps the first in voat's history in v/Whatever.

The crazy person on AnonTalk usually bitches about @kevdude and @Crensch and up to a few days ago they were 2.7 day old accounts. They probably thought you were them. They're obsessed.

The archived comment spells out "years". Not days.

And @Kevdude and @Crensch were listed as 2.7 year old accounts until very a few days ago. Don't you see all the posts about "crenschdude"? They're 7 kinds of crazy.

I have seen those 'crenschdude' posts and they're pretty funny to be honest.
It's even funnier to me that in the last two comments you've not addressed anything I've written but instead have come to the defense of Kevdude and Crensch (users I didn't even mention).
But you're from SBBH and you guys have apparently teamed up with K & C for brigades/to attack users across voat (when in the early days PV and SBBH used to be at odds) so I shouldn't be surprised you see my warning about certain SBBH members as some kind of warning about K & C when it clearly is not.

Rabbi pretty obviously meant 2.7 year old accounts. Both kevdude and my accounts were 2.7 year old accounts until recently - so calling you out for being one is kinda not that threatening.
I get pinged to anon comments all the time accusing the previous commenter of being me.
The guys that generally attack me and @kevdude also attack SBBH and consider us part of them, despite my never having submitted anything to SBBH, ever.
None of this is a huge leap, and @RabbiMohel tends to be around a decent amount when that kind of drama pops up.

That's how fucking retarded they are :)
You asked the other day... Yes, It's mick and nah, it's not a secret
