That got cleared up in an earlier CFJ, amazingly by a sushi'd Plunder.  I'd CFJ'd that emailing the Administrator counts as posting to a public forum because the Administrator is publicly accessible to communication.  Plunder ruled that since the rules said the Administrator designated only spoon-business to be the public forum, that's the only public forum.

This is an instance of the fact that the rules describe one set of circumstances implies there can be no other circumstances.
