At risk of cluttering this further, I feel obliged to point out that asking questions of people in chat does not oblige them to answer. I myself have many times refused to with no further consequence. Indeed, I am pretty sure that we have in the past stepped in to enforce the policy if people are trying to force the issue when others do not want to answer.

That is quite different from threatening somebody with information acquired against their will. And since the threatening occured on a wikia site, it is relevant to us and reflects against us even if the method used to acquire that information was not on wikia.
