First of all let me say that I don't think this topic belongs in this forum. It should be in General Discussion.
Now to the question.
I can see where Bryan has a concern. Many attorneys will attempt a "scatter gun" technique meaning win by intimidation.
But as many members here are employees of municipalities I can see the concern.

I see several alternatives for this site for people that have a concern.

Did I say this topic should be moved?

1. I can turn off all profile fields that show say occupation.
At least that will not show who you work for. Or users can delete them themselves

2. You can delete your public email in your profile.(this is another clue where you work)

3.You can change your display name to a nickmane. I would need to approve each one so we don't have duplicates.

Worse case scenario is turn the board into a completely private forum. But who is going to police who is allowed to access same.

Maybe keep comments to actual code sections. And keep out personal opinion.
