As I said before, appealing to an online forum crowd from an associated chat channel, whether official or not, is invariably a bad idea, because of the difference in the expectations of privacy. It harms the forum (but usually not the channel) and so is often a bannable offence in the forums which support banning users. Anyone bringing the same issue up in an unrelated thread, like Dallas did, ought to be banned for trolling.
