That's true for most online forums. Most posters here I can guarantee don't go to the depth you describe. The LAS case is going to be big dollar - if they want you found they will. If they can associate you with being a delta pilot commenting openly in an online forum, they can do that too. It wouldn't take a good lawfirm much to deduce it - posting on an airline pilot forum, titled "Delta" and with post history clearly indicating you are a pilot for said air line, would be more than sufficient. Unless the judge thinks otherwise for the case and demands more. I'm just saying let's don't give the other team any more than we have already.
I hope you don't come across in real life as you do on APC otherwise I imagine the list of FOs that have you on their no fly list is quite long.

I can tell you for absolute fact this is not true. Don’t think for one second the company doesn’t monitor these boards, nor that they haven’t called people into the CPO.

Folks on the 4th floor have more important things to do than chase down anonymous posters talking shop on APC unless there was an extremely concerning post.

APC mostly “Sound and fury, signifying nothing,”
(Thank god)

Those folks have a million meetings a day, reports to run, phone constantly ringing, and routinely work long hours. They are not calling people into the CPO unless it’s really bad.

I believe Fangs has mentioned in the past he has personal history with this and I have no reason to doubt him.

Don’t think they aren’t monitoring. They are. Fact.

I didn't know about Fangs, but I believe him. Our company is very concerned about brand image. They have a robust SM operation. All I'm saying is please be cautious about posting on incidents before the investigations are completed. It's interesting to speculate, we are curious creatures and as pilots wired to be inquisitive. In these cases patience wins the day.

There’s obviously no one assigned to sit in the GO, read all the boards, and figure out who people are. But people there and in the CPOs read things, even if it’s just in their down time. And once someone gets a hair across their rear end, it’s not hard to figure out who people are. It’s not uncommon for pilots to receive counseling or discipline for things they post on FB, so is it really such a stretch that the company would have the same behavior towards people here?
