Originally this was to be a reply in a post but thought to make OFFICIAL
Did you alert any of them that you're an investigative reporter preparing a "leak" publicizing emails assumed private?
Private forums with responsible accountable members can do what they like internally.
But ES EGYPTOLOGY is a public forum and
I'm very against publishing professional's names with their private correspondence without their prior approval.
This only applies when trying to "expose".
Positive expansions or clarifications from them on their works is acceptable and OK to post w/o approval afaic.
If somebody says they have permission I will email the pro with what appears in the post in which they are named for verification.
Why?
E-mail, like snail mail, is only meant for the corresponding sender(s) and receiver(s). There could be legal repurcussions.
We in the habit of writing to academicians pretty much know who thinks in private, or among like minded colleagues, something different or unindicated in their works. So if anybody really wants to know for sure then they should do an e-mail themself.
RECAP: * anonymous quoting is OK * naming names in bad light is out of bounds.

Some have an ends justify the means philosophy
Such and such person is deemed a racist, therefore they will be exposed by any means necessary

I don't see why you deleted my post just because you disagree with me in another thread.
I'm just saying that emails in general can be faked and can't constitute proper source of information.
We all know we can't believe everything that is written on the internet. Always seek proper reliable sources of information and crosscheck them with other sources when possible.

I don't see why you persist in calling people you disagree with agents or pretend e-mailers but I'll tell you again I'm damned sick and tired of it. Grow up.
Instead rerouting your thread to AE why should I take the time out of my life to delete those 9 posts after you libel me an 'agent of confusion' simply because you disagree with an ongoing 2500 year old identification of blacks throughout the entire southern bounds of the eastern hemisphere rather than "sub-Saharan Africa" alone?
Just who do you think you are kid?

Don't delete them if you don't want too. I just suggested deleting those posts for the good running of this forum, which I thought this is what you were after too. If you don't delete them, I wont be mad at you.
This is a debate forum. Some people can call me a liar in some instance or an agent of confusion. It's no biggy. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

I'm sorry but saying that emails can be faked doesn't go against any rules. It's basic internet wisdom.

I just want to make it clear again, that I don't want you to delete any posts if you don't want to. You made a post in that very thread about going off topic, that's why I showed you the thread which were off topic. Of course, I agree with you, going off topic is not a good thing.
Notice how I did **NOT** include the post by TR discussing his emails yet again in the posts to be deleted. Yes, I think they are fake but he has the right to post them.
The posts I pointed out to be deleted were 100% off topic. Very much 100%. Anyway Swenet got his own thread where he can discuss his tabloid drama with other users.
