While it is true that AG's account may have been compromised at one time and the admins commented upon it, there is no doubt or question that she actually has cancer (or should be. I've spoken to people who know AG IRL who have confirmed that she has oral cancer. So that settles that.) or that we all wish her to get well. Thus the questions in this subthread are largely-moot. Whether or not the account was hijacked, AG was in-control of it when she announced the return of her cancer.

The recap, for clarification: AG's account was seemingly compromised briefly and some posts were made that she likely did not author. The situation was addressed, the posts were scrubbed and she regained her account. The entire incident lasted less than 24 hours. All of that happened well before her cancer returned. She subsequently posted about the return of her cancer including a link to an article about her including her real name.

We're going to err on the side of decency and assume honest intentions. I'm going to assume everybody wants AG to get well.

This is a thread wishing well-being and recovery to a fellow Lounger. Please respect that. Thank you. You'd want to receive the same respect in your well-wishes thread if you were seriously ill or injured.

I have unlocked this thread. Skinner Dec 2011 #59
While unlocking this thread could you at least clean it up a bit? auntAgonist Dec 2011 #62
For better or worse, the DU Administrators don't cover up for ugly behavior anymore. Skinner Dec 2011 #68

Out of curiosity, why did you unlock this thread? It flies in the face of the Lounge rules. helderheid Dec 2011 #67
Because threads should only be locked based on the content of the original post. Skinner Dec 2011 #70
In this case, however, it is an entire sub-thread that is disturbing. pacalo Dec 2011 #72
