Chill the hell out, Pahoran. I was agreeing with you that for Nemesis to post Dr. Shades' real name was at least somewhat comparable to Shades linking Nemesis to his other forum persona, which seems to be part of his real name, and that he shouldn't do it.
The only times I have ever referenced your RL name is when discussing things that were published under your real name or posts that you made under that MA&D handle, so you might want to reserve your drama queen "cold-blooded act of malice" fatuity for some future knee-jerk snarling at me on another subject.

But they're still anonymous. Their real names aren't being posted to any board.

Does that pass for Mormon logic these days?
Collapsing separate sock puppets into one identity is not outing anyone in the way that "saying that 'Dr Scratch is Mark Hoffman'" would surely be. After all, Mark Hoffman is a person's in real life identity. The fact that I am both sock puppet and nimrod does not disclose my in real life identity.
