About Endchan, I tell you this straight up. I had been posting on End when 8ch went down. I was digging on someone, not going to say who, that had Nites of Malta membership. Was hardly anything on them on the web. In searching, I kept going page by page, by page when I came across one of my posts that I had made on Enchan. When you are digging on people who have such power and connections to dangerous people, I was really shocked and scared to see my post on the internet. I didn’t say anything bad about this person but in the post I was asking anons for help with looking into a family relation to someone who has disappeared. Freaked me out. Have not posted on End since. I am not here to try to dissuade anyone. Just want to say, Be Careful.
>sounds like you put something on End that wound up on the net and you're not sure who put it there?
That’s right. And I don’t know anyone who posts to the chans. One possible explanation is that I was phonefagging which may have made my post more accessible to scraper programs. Did not want to accuse End of making anons’ digs available to the net and I have seen where Qrsrch has been searchable in the net. That said, it’s not my style to use pejoratives or crude innuendo when discussing stuff. A good policy I guess. But I still worry that if (((someone))) is looking up their friend, they might not like that people are looking at them.
Kind of related- I read a book that was a compilation of the correspondence of Robert E. Lee including official and private correspondence to his family. He was noted to never use disparaging words or profanity even on the battlefield when speaking of the enemy when many Union commanders were known to use much profanity when referring to the Confederates. In one example, and in the heat of battle when the outcome of the battle was in the balance, and there were some Union snipers or artillery that was threatening their flank, he said something like, “Take your men and clear THOSE PEOPLE out of that treeline.” Always a gentleman. A good policy to keep.
