Please read my update above. I got the user wrong originally because (a) you said the user was locked, so I went looking for a locked user named 'ruby' and found that one, and (b) I didn't find any user named 'Ruby' because that account had been zombified, and zombified users have their names changed (by prepending 'Zombie ').

I should consider that users don't necessarily know all the minutiae of how this place works, e.g. the differences locking and zombifying. Sorry about that.

I didn't dox you. (1) People don't know who the real person is behind silent11 or Ruby — neither the real name nor the email address, which is all the info we have. And even that info isn't necessarily "real". (2) There are documented restrictions on what people can do with secondary accounts here, and we've made no representations that affiliations between primary and secondary accounts will be kept secret. Again, I wonder why you care so much, given that you never did anything with the secondary account.

I probably would have followed up by email except I saw you raise the question here, so I figured you wanted your question answered publicly. I regret that I misread you on that.
