How's he used his mod privileges to look you up? You basically gave away a lot of personal information when you were telling everyone you were a podiatrist.

Badwriter is a teacher, Creed is a crisis counselor, Dragonetti is in the military, and Jacob is a podiatrist. Divulging one's work is not high risk information-divulging unless your IP can be traced. Mods have that ability therefore their responsibility to ensure their members privacy and safety is quite high. Worst case scenarios abound when dishonest people get personal information (Rayaan being an honest person, I don't see any real harm done, unless Jacob doesn't feel comfortable now being a member.)

Put it on the internet and expect someone to view it. Really don't see how it's Rayaan's fault that you have pictures of your family online.

Come now, is it really relevant for a mod to look at your Facebook or to read your posts on a podiatry forum? In compliance with the rules, I would think you would do a search, see he was a real person--and not go reading their personal information. Since it has nothing to do with mod duties.
