Phenomenon which occurs when E2 becomes populated by too many people from a noder's Real Life, especially people with whom Real Life relations are somewhat stressed. This violation is particularily brutal when a noder has been using E2 as a form of escape from his/her Real Life psychological difficulties and awkward situations.

Among issues which arise:

• How much Real Life complexity is allowed to be revealed on E2?
• Attempts to hide from the Real Life noder will be foiled if you use E2 logged in
• Botched /msg's can reveal embarrassing truths to all
• Thinly veiled references to other noders can get even more sinister, even more quickly
• Everything 2 Civil War becomes Everything 2 Domestic Dispute (even more repulsive)
• Knowing too much about someone you know in RealLife can be Bad, and sometimes people node Way Too Much
• The morality of certain Voting/Cooling/Softlinking becomes questionable, at best
• Regret for having mentioned E2 in certain company

When such a situation arises, the best course of action is to spontaneously combust, and cut your losses while you can.
