That's also a good point, and something that should be considered.
Marty's full name has been censored from the site for a long time.
Basically, Marty approached me awhile ago (a long time before he dealt with Pickering) and told me that this site was SEOing high for his name, and it was affecting his ability to do business.
While Marty did make his own name public many years ago, and definitely is the source of most of his own problems, I understood where he was coming from. I have an asshole trying hard (and succeeding) to SEO my name, and I understand how frustrating this can be.
I don't want this site to hurt anyone aside from scammers and other criminals, so I told Marty I would censor his name to where everyone here would understand it (it changed to Curacao) but google wouldn't index it to his real name.
So that was done.
I will admit that I was irritated when Marty recently returned to the site and mocked me about what Chucky was doing to me (the SEO job on MY name). I told Marty that I would remove the filter on his name if he thought such attacks were so hilarious.
But I do understand your point that Marty's name should also be fair game if he's using the site to call out someone else by name.
