Explain it to me, what did I miss?
1. I won't get into the details about league permissions because I don't really know how it works, but nobody leaked the report to WBF.
2. It's understandable how the term chimp is very closely tied to insults that have plagued the black community for centuries, however, the intent was clearly not racially motivated
3. WBF is upset because, yes, HIS trade block was leaked
4. what am I missing?
1. It's not about the content of my report, you are free to agree or disagree with it. I think it deserves to at least be looked into especially in the light of recent suspensions, but if you don't think so that's fine.
2. WBF claims to be so upset about leaks in general and now especially about leaks regarding his own team.
3. At the same time however, he himself is leaking sensitive information to his own team. In fact I would argue that reports are much more delicate information than trade block posts. They can be seen by much fewer people and their content can be much more critical.
4. And in my opinions, that's some massive hypochrisy from someone who claims to be so righteously upset about leaks. Apparently he is only upset as long as they are committed by other people and don't benefit him.

I was going to dig into this since, as per usual, you've given us all plenty to chew on. But the fact you're comparing trade blocks to the post report function is all I need to know to not bother with this.

yeah because it's funny and inconsequential and we like to laugh at you in Buffalo
At this point, being hated by you guys is like a badge of honor, kinda fills me with pride actually . The moment guys like you or kit were starting to like me is when I would start to get worried.

May I say that I think this is quite the overreaction? First of all rumors are fun, they create conversation and speculation and give people material to create new content about. If you think that someone is overdoing it with the rumors then sure, reign him in, tell him to post less of them or mix in more false ones, but outright banning rumors altogether and suspending the person behind them just because some GMs are upset doesn't seem like a good move.
I could understand this reaction if we were talking about actual sensitive information - stuff from the head office, content from private conversations between GMs etc. But the trade-block? It's basically a semi-public forum already where a looooot of people have access. Like, just to get a rough estimate... 14 teams, most of them with 2 GMs, the HO members, the Owners and then moderators, people with faulty permissions etc... We are easily talking about 30+ people here that have access to that forum already. You can hardly call that sensitive information, especially since trade block posts are made by GM specifically to be read by others.

I think he has a valid point, actually. The trade block is a tool for the GM's to shop players, sometimes they tell the players and sometimes they don't. These leaks from Samee are bad, but someone leaking a report that is supposed to only be seen/known about by a very small group of people is pretty bad.
From what I'm getting, you received the report and leaked it to your team? What were you going to dig into? "yup, I did it. Case closed!"

I think one of the issues is these aren't rumors. Rumors aren't always right. This is someone leaking the trade block directly to samee, and him posting it. If he threw some random players that weren't actually on the block in there, it would be rumors.
