Family business--the great entrepreneur got his job because of his relatives? From http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=187268&KW=printing&PID=2683231#2683231 - this thread:
The bolded statement in this post from http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=182588&KW=printing&PID=2612029#2612029 - this thread could have contributed to the confusion.
Or this one from http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=182402&KW=printing&PID=2609253#2609253 - another thread. Bolding from this point on was something I added to highlight relevant stuff.
Another http://tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=182402&KW=printing&PID=2609217#2609217 - one :
*I found this statement kind of amusing in retrospect. . . it's kind of like saying I own the best business of the kind of business I own of anybody that lives on my block. -------------

Word. I completely sympathize with you on this one. I've never understood why someone would post song lyrics on their FB page as a way of conveying something. Although, I don't have the same disdain for the lack of moral character in music like you probably do, so I might be getting annoyed at something else 
Honestly, if FE had a superpower and someone to push his image like you just did, "Free Enterprise" could be a bland, genuine superhero or a potentially hilarious satirical figure with superpowers. Get on it, Glenn. I see a graphic novel and movie franchise in your future if you can do it. -------------

No, but stalking another forumer based on his real name let slip in a BMX conversation many months ago and using that to snoop into other things intended for other audiences is sort of scummy. Most people on forums use handles for a reason, and we don't necessarily intend for anyone to play Internet detective and snoop any aspect of our lives that they can ferret out. If you folks want to giddily PM each other and salivate over whatever 'dirt' you've dug up, that's one thing, but 'outing' another member is uncalled for. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Completely 100% agreed. Except... FE has never made any attempts to hide behind his handle. He throws out pics of his home and friends, right down to the details of how many live there, the layout of the house, and giving us tours of his possessions via pics. He's all but named his businesses several times, even giving us YouTube videos of his various hobbies with pretty good ideas of who's in them and where they take place. I'm sure if I looked hard enough, I'd find at least part of his real name given here on the forum from his own mouth. FE spun that web, the forum just pieced it together. I'd say it's less cyber stalking and more "I clicked the links he provided, here let me post them on the forum". The only hurtful thing anyone on here did was call him out on a lie, or really an exaggeration as 90% of what he said was still in some way true. In fact, all I get by reading his LinkedIn page is that he's a hard worker with a good work ethic and a pretty interesting background. His lie by omission is more interesting in terms of heated debates that he himself starts and refuses to let go than a strike against his own personal character. -------------

That's bull and you know it. What he's chosen to reveal is what he's chosen to reveal. Careleness on his part doesn't justify dragging his actual businesses out for everyone to peruse. Any potential character or integrity issued by diggin up his crap doesn't excuse draggin external stuff onto this group to begin with. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I don't see it as letting slip or being careless on a public forum. This isn't real time chat, he didn't go WHOOPS and request his personal info be stricken from the record. The vast majority of info on that page is available on the forum from FE's own mouth. Someone with a little more time on their hands (*glares at Mack*) could easily pull up most of it with the search button. -------------

I am going to have to agree with strato on this one, Bri.
Do I feel that anyone should post someone elses information (linkedin, phone numbers, etc)? No. Its wrong. Other than Yomillio posting phone numbers from Sandmans work webcam, cause he got a cool sig out of it.
However, one does need to have a bit of responsibility of he or she doesnt want everything out there. FE evidently does not care if we here know his personal information. One day while BS'ing on the forum I told him I would call him with which he replied, to a lesser extent, "go ahead". Some research later, and we laughed about it. Did I post the number on mother, or put it in PBC? Build it out of cobblestone in minecraft when I was on the server? No, but any individual here probably could. While I was responsible and made a joke out of it, any person could easily harass the crap out of the guy (which, btw, is wrong).
If you want to keep your information private, you have to make it a point not to post everything. I think it is even more dumb when people put their phone numbers on Facebook. My ex did that, and I told her to get rid of it. Then again, I think she is now the town bicycle, but that is another story. -------------

He mad. Strato covered it well. Most of the info from that profile (résumé) was posted previously in other threads by FE. Harmless fun, well except for that aneurysm Bri wasted blowing this out of proportion. Let's resume freaking out when something important gets posted, like a CC number or an address, instead of the first google result from a simple name search. Sorry your thread got derailed so badly, DeTrevni, it was supposed to be a simple LOL and move on. Edit- I can't spell tonight. -------------
