It is not that that was so much the issue as your suggestion that people pm you to know who she is, thus setting her up to be judged based on your own experiences, which in my opinion, is not fair and does not really match up with:

All I would have given in the PM was a name and not a sob story beyond the sob story I've posted here in the Haven unless very well-prodded to do so. I don't think this person have been hurt by me giving their name in a PM for the same reason I don't think my ending all contact with the person doesn't hurt their feelings--the person's nature as I have judged it based on my own experiences with the person.
However, since some may view my giving out a name in PM as unfair, I retract my statement that I will do that. Also, no one has PM'd me yet asking for the name, so it is likely that no one was interested anyway. (Of course, I have told some of my long time friends from WP the person's name because I do occasionally share various problems in my life with them in detail.)
