An active outspoken cat user. Used to be a moderator and a DT2 member but got entangled into what was either a sting operation gone bad or an extortion scheme, depending on who you listen to, and you probably don't want to listen to the likes of Zin-Zang too much. So Lauda got booted from moderators and from DT2 but now came back into DT1. The guy/girl thing is still an open question.
anybody came up with a solid proof against him/her ? if yes, why is he/she still around after a
"proven extortion" , if no , what is everybody whining about?
i expect the answer to be too complicated
There were chat logs that could have been interpreted both ways IMHO, hinging on the actual intent of the participants. So for example (not an actual quote) if I'm saying "do this or else" - is that extortion or am I trying to coerce you to do something illegal (sting). I don't believe it was proven extortion but you might want to search for yourself and make up your own opinion.
The reason there is whining is probably related to the numerous red trusts posted by Lauda. Many of those red-trusted users (~800 or so) would like to get rid of those ratings and they briefly did when Lauda was excluded from DT2.
