You briefly mentioned an incident to me last year, and I heard
additonal details second-handedly, but it wasn't clear to me that
you were referencing that incident in this instance. As I recall,
the "intentional mischief" was a single incident related to a post
on another video poker internet group, which raised privacy
issues, but didn't concern any critical video poker information.
As I told you at the time, obvious casinio mistakes IMO are about
the only valuable items (of a negative nature) that can be gleaned
by casino lurkers or spies, and anyone concerned about their
privacy should use an anonymous ID.
