> So far, so good. That is a concept I believe all can agree on.

Good.

> But that is not the question.

I see a deflection coming on.

> What you are suggesting is for sysops to have meetings in secret.
> Where only they can play. With nobody else around.

We are not meeting in secret. We are having a discussion amongst ourselves.

I understand the word but you are using it incorrectly. We are not lovers or sneaking anything.

There is no hunt.

No, the echo is leaking. You are not the first leak and you won't be the last.
