I find the protests of outing especially ironic, given her propensity for the same (it's hard to tell whether she is malicious or simply oblivious when she does it). I, personally, have had her post collections of facts about me that when viewed together would clearly out me to anyone who knows me personally even casually. Given that up until a few months ago I was one of the most private posters, this bothered me a great deal. During almost six years of posting, I've never had a similar experience with a single other poster. I suspect many other current and especially past posters can say the same.
I know that there are posters past and present on this board that fear her. Fear her insanity. Fear that she will lash out and violate the trust that is this board and out them -- not on the board, but to bosses, spouses, friends directly -- in some petty act of revenge.
I'm with Less on this one.

1 All posters are not equal. Paigow, while nuts, is really funny. We don't need to lose funny people.
2 Several people have probably driven away posters with repeated attacks. I don't think she is the meanest poster- or even the most dogged once in attack mode.
3 She posted here for years, yet I've never heard her outing anyone, contacting someone's boss, etc. If she had wouldn't you expect to have heard?
And making a laundry list of things you've told everyone about yourself is not outing. She has this remarkable memory for previously posted details. To me, a big part of her humor is remembering something from a post 2 years ago. I don't think that is a fault, or somehow wrong, do you?
There are posters I like who are in blood-hate feuds with her. But feuds exist beyond her, they can't all be eliminated.
