Please note in my post I stated:
"from what I understand the Route44 Gang refers to people playing out of
Tarl and Stacia's living room. If I am mistaken then someone needs to
correct this perception by using their real names. Until then, I will assume
that this is coming from that Household."

You will note I said "this *perception*...."  This is a *perception* formed
from actively participating in Namron.  The nickname is known to several in
Namron (and some outside of Namron) to be a reference to the aforementioned
household and it's allies.

As for postings "that indicate who these people are or that they are
connected in any way to Master Tarl," I refer you too Tadhg's accidental
"Re: offline" post to this very list.  In it he states:

"...Arianne...she waits to the last moment, selects someone associated with
the 'Route 44 Gang'..."

Please note that he names Arianne, our Northern Regional Seneschal, who is
well known as a member of Tarl and Stacia's household.  Thus, the connection
between the "Route 44 Gang" and Tarl and Stacia's household is made.
(Personal note: I'm not "smearing" Arianne, just quoting the line above as a
proof of the reference.)

Also, the anonymous posters have willfully and gleefully adopted the "Route
44 gang" moniker from Tadhg's post.  From the "NR - Re:" post by
"penguinlust":

"another member of the "Route 44 Gang"   ;-)

PS:
Hey Tadhg! Thanks for the cool name!"

"obviously?"

I have no desire to smear Master Tarl on this forum.  If anyone is smearing
Master Tarl (and those with whom he and his wife are associated) it is these
anonymous posters and their juvenile behavior since, as mentioned above, the
"Route 44 gang" moniker was conceived by someone in Namron as a reference to
that household and it's allies.  By taking on said reference, these
anonymous posters are gleefully, and possibly maliciously, causing harm to
that household's reputation.

I have now submitted "proof" for the basis of my perception.  It is now up
to someone to provide proof that is contrary to that perception.

As I indicated above, it is possible that the "Route 44 gang" postings are
coming from someone wishing to smear that household and it's allies.  If
that is the case, then I *will* apologize for linking Master Tarl and his
household to the anonymous postings.  But until the anonymous cowards come
out and admit who they are, we will most likely never know if that is the
case or if it is truly originating from those whom I initially alleged.

Unfortunately, in today's internet world, it is all too easy to get an
anonymous identity and perform willful acts of character assassination
without fear of retribution.
