Right, that's why I've been in here answering questions as they come up. And your suggestion makes sense, as 2+2 has a history of doing that sort of thing. Oh, wait, no we don't.
Yes, it's been a while. As I said, I wanted to make sure we had a chance to have everyone heard. And the situation has been this way for quite some time, so I really didn't think a couple more weeks either way would hurt things. In the meantime, the number of people asking to have their information removed over that month has been...none. Which is pretty normal - we rarely hear from anyone asking to have information removed. We just have a few people who seem really, really concerned about other people's info.
Nothing wrong with that, mind you. I get that some people are strong privacy advocates. But it does get a little annoying when all we're hearing from is a couple of people who were filling this thread with some terrible posts, and someone who has created a new account dedicated to this one issue.
Anyway, I posted a last request for feedback in the mod forum a few days ago before going ahead with anything, and it was only when I came in here to implement our decision that I saw the last couple posts ITT.
OK, now that I'm done venting, here's what I posted in the negative feedback thread:

Info to include in your post
1) 2+2 screen name.
2) Poker site name(s). Please.
3) AOL IM, emails, city, etc. Phone numbers, street addresses, photos/scans of ID and similar info is not permitted. Contact a mod about special circumstances.
4) A reasonably brief summary of the problem. No walls of text please, link to the thread if you like.
I did add one bit today: "photos/scans of ID", although I think it would be obvious that was also in the spirit of the rules as they were written - it just wasn't something people were posting at that time.
So, no significant change to the rules - just a clarification, and a reminder of what was already there.
If anyone wishes to discuss further:

I've gone back through the last few pages and done some clean-up, which takes things back to the beginning of this year. I don't plan on going further back than that at this time; if people have their personal info from earlier that they would like removed, they should report the post(s) in question - red triangle to the left of every post.
Thanks to everyone for their input. Even though I've been a bit snarky from time to time (including in this post), I really have appreciated your feedback, and it was all read and considered.
