Thread: For The Record

    I awake to find a few threads discussing yesterdays postings. I thought I would get some of the facts set down, just for the record. I don't consider that any of the posts made last night were behind my back or cowardly, just made by people in different time zones.

    1. As I remember I posted three pictures. These were all obviously posed. The person therefore knew the pictures were being taken. Two were head and shoulders, one was full length. None of the pictures was in any way lewd, at least not in my opinion

    2. The pictures had, to the best of my knowledge been posted on the internet by the subject themselves. That is what the accompanying text said, they were certainly in "post a picture of yourself" threads.

    3. They were posted on a public part of an internet forum. The same forum had a private / members only section. I did not post anything from the private section. The obvious inference, to any reasonable person was that the pictures in the public area were public and those in the private area private.

    4. Hobbes, as he himself has stated, suggested in the same thread that there may be other pictures from the private area, which would be of interest. He did not ever post any. I firmly believe that he never had any intention to post them.

    5. UKMan took it upon himself to assault me verbally. I have no problem with that, I believe in freedom of speech. I will not repeat what he said, if anyone is interested they can have a look. I am only sad to hear that he has never liked me - like I said at the time, I feel entirely differently.

    6. He also made certain threats against Hobbes, this is a matter between them. I am glad they appear to have resolved their issues.

    7. The only other photos which were posted were samsamsam and he did that himself. So other than one being removed by a mod because of content, I believe that has no bearing on this.

    No matter how many people throw dummies out of prams, lie on their backs with their arms and feet flailing in the air, or claim righteous indignation, this is simply nonsense. Nothing that was done was illegal, immoral or unethical. People may not like it, however to post material of a non-descript nature in a public place, with no indication that you want it kept private and then expect people not to access it is untenable. If you add to that the fact that you advertise the place on other forums this apparent hurt makes no sense at all.

    To put the whole malicious thing in context. I recently received a PM from one of the injured parties. It stated amongst other things

    For the first time in a long while Im actually enjoying the challenge of having to use my mind and think!

    Thank you for stimulating it. I was beginning to think it had died on me.
    This does not give me the impression of someone who is being hurt by my words, quite the reverse in fact.

    Yesterday I received this from another of the parties

    Again I do not feel that they were threatened or hurt.

    I do not see how this can have changed, simply because I reproduced images that they themselves had made public.

    You scumbag J'Pol...

    Tell everyone when that PM was sent to you?

    In the last 48 hours? In the last 24?

    NO! Over a week ago... before things turned nasty the first time we sparred? YES!

    How dare you try to justify anything you did! And how dare you make assumptions as to how I feel about your sick and sorry actions.

    What you did was just plain out n out nastiness.... we have an expression here for people like you.... gutless wonders!

    Take a bow ... you've proved that there are more horses arse's than there are horses on this planet ...

    Since I've been attending my workplace all day, I have come home to this schmozzle. It's not the fact that this person posted my picture on the internet (it is publicly available for viewing in my profile over at the Rikk and Cowsy's forum), it is the fact that he did it without my permission.

    Sure...the argument is that my picture is there for public viewing, so it is in the public domain. But surely it should be my choice where that pic should be posted? To me, that is just internet etiquette and common decency.

    I guess that opinion is the difference between you and I, J'Pol.
    Up Yours! Love from The Club....

    Maybe, maybe not, but it was rude.
