Gratuitous Evidence by Goethe:
I often don't have ag-dis delivery turned on, so such
messages are frequently not "sent" to me (I do, obviously, read them from
the archives). -Goethe
========================================================================
Judge OscarMeyr's Arguments:
The message in question was not sent to a public forum, and was not clearly
sent to all players. As precedent, when I was Registrar and had to send out
a 1-month deregistration notice, I clearly stated that I was BCC'ing the
message to the player's listed email address. I consider such a
statement to
be a clear statement that a message is being sent to the player in
question.
To qualify as a public message, a message would have to be copied or
blind-copied (with a notice similar to mine) to all registered players;
relying on players subscribing to or reading the archives of a public forum
is not sufficient. As no such notice or copying was contained in the
message
in question, nor did the message's full headers include any cc: lines, I
rule
FALSE.
========================================================================
Judge OscarMeyr's Evidence:
(1) R478/22, relevant paragraph:
A message is public if and only if it is sent via a public forum
or is sent to all players and contains a clear designation of
intent to be public. A player "publishes" or "announces"
something by sending a public message.
(2) H. Registrar root's report of 20 January 2008, relevant part:
Mailing lists: (PF = Public Forum, DF = Discussion Forum)

PF <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (other business)
DF <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (discussion)

(3) Goethe's gratuitous evidence, as quoted above.
