Like to get the thoughts and feedback of you guys...
Very long story short. I did a search a few weeks ago and stumpled upon a very old forum post on a site much like this, it is now out of business a few years. I did nothing wrong, but it could be very embarrassing for me, my family and damaging to my career.
It would be very sensitive and a person with a little techie know how could quite easily connect it back to me. I emailed the site admin, wasn't really expecting a reply since the site had been largely dead for at least 2 yrs, but got a reply this morning.
They said they'd delete my user name and all my old posts, no problem, if I email them from the username which seems logical. Only that exposes me to them. They might not be as decent and upstanding as you guys here, they could potentially blackmail me.
So the question, do I just let it be and hope it doesn't come up? It hasn't ever been an issue since I've been ignorant of it for 6 years, but always have it hanging over my head, skeleton in the closet.
Or do I go for broke, risk the very thing I'm trying hardest to avoid and trust in the other webmaster to do what they've said they'll do?
Also for the mods, if someone requested you to delete all of their posts and threads, and they mailed you from their account, would you just do it? Does that seem too easy?
Damn stressed and more than a little paranoid here. Suggestions appreciated!
