Acadia Letting the public know that a certain merchant is a known thief .. is good business tactics. Now anyone who has anything else by that merchant will know to doublecheck it and make sure they dont have stolen goods. Also anyone else at other sites doing a background check on him will know to be careful about business dealings. Reputation is very important in business. As for him being a social pariah? its less than he deserves for theft and plagiarism. He brought his troubles on himself. Let him reap his own rewards. I dont beleive in playing nice with rulebreakers ... he did it he deals wth the consequences. End of story. This is the mellowest thread of this type I've seen in a long long time and I applaud Blackhearteds restraint. Lyrra
