No fear! The cat is in the bag, Qara.

Alright fine, look, I edited it, and if it will REALLY make you feel better I'll go through my previous posts using search/replace but the word is EVERYWHERE so there's not much point. Really, dear, if they were going to find it they probably already have.

Also, the rule to hiding things on the internet is to actually ADD MORE OF THE SAME!
When you overload a search term with loads and loads of similiar but not quite useful information, you make sure the load is too big for a person to actually keep up, meaning, if we talk about them A LOT, we'll effectively hide what we're talking from them.

Literally hiding it in plain sight?

... Need I remind you that James Moriarty is a member of this group?

I'm working on it. I believe I'm about halfway through, and I've been here a week. So it's possible.

And are you actually getting much done aside from post reading? Could you actually manage to run an evil organization and plot against your enemies? It takes a damn long time. So basically, he can either not read everything and be dangerous, or be so busy reading our thousands of posts that he can no longer actually present a danger to us for the next few weeks, at which point we may be able to outmaneuver him.

How could he be reading BEFORE we started? Please tell me he hasn't invented a time machine...

Anyway, it still takes me a lot of time and constant watching to stay reasonably up to date around here. My point is that he probably doesn't have the time to get to what he needs to get done if he sticks around reading us all day. This means that the Cabal is going to delegate tasks; each member reads certain bits, but no one really gets the full picture and even together they don't have time to read everything.

However, if you guys insist, I'll just give you a solution...
