I don't go out of my way to slag off the company i work for and i never will, However if they have done something wrong i will say so. The issue is that if some jumped up power mad person decided they don't like what you have posted and they think you are staff they have access to the ip address of anyone that posts on that forum.

It does not take the brains of an archbishop to associate the ip information of the poster with an account via the tools they have. Then they can drag that person in for a interview without coffee or biscuits to be given a verbal warning NOT to post in that way again or be sacked

Lets take a for instance here.

Lets say Virgin decide tomorrow to switch on the phorm system and they decide that its an opt out. Now that would kick up a massive stink and response from users and staff. What would the position be of a staff person posting on that forum who does not like Phorm and posts against the use of the phorm system. ?????

Now it might be that no one ever gets dragged across the coals for posting on there but i dont want to take the chance that a single wrong word will make someone track me down and get me in a office and rip me a new A.
