As so often, the desire to archive our past and the individual's right to be forgotten are at odds here. As we are "by fans, for fans," it seems pretty obvious that the needs of the fan exceed the desire to keep an account, especially given that we are getting into doxxing territory here.

My main question would be what purpose the images might serve and whether any of those purposes would be hindered when blurring faces. The main argument I'm seeing for uploading pics seems to be cosplay, and the costumes are mostly just as visible even if faces are blurred.

We don't even have images of our OTW board who all serve under RL names and in their public personae. Why would we want to upload pics that are private or taken from places with minimal circulation? The lines are too fine and the risks too great to permit such a policy!
