saying that my picture was on the buzzboard
so I took a look on the buzzboard to find that my picture was on it saying that my friends were going to shave my head
oh not to mention they spelled my really poorly
this really bothers me... don't really know how to feel
should I just remove all pictures of myself from the internet? or just ignore it?
Ignoring the intruders won't give the satisfaction of a reply.
Hey Caesar, bruh, what is UP with that!?
First of all, that constitutes abuse. You are legally bound (if ya like) to report any kind of abuse to the site provider. In this case it's MySpace. I've never had that kinda garbage, ever, especially on MySpace. You have nothing to lose. Do it, Caesar. It could prevent something worse from happening. Oh, oh, and click the link below for my friend Dank's webpage ON MySpace. He and is wife, Kira, have another band, Von Ghouls, but this is just for his virtuoso solo guitar stuff (aaand, I designed the logo for his earlier group, Infradig)! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

All right! All right! Which one of you moderators changed the one, single, little word that I had eruditely chosen specificly for this predicament, for "fecal matter", and substituted it for something more "General-Audiences-rated", say, the word for "trash", or "rubbish", or "refuse", hmn?!
I know that a particular Halifaxian took umbrage to my one-time-only use of the "f" word months ago, which, be it known by these tenets, appeared in someone else's posting recently, too, as they had peppered their verbal frustration with it. But. jeeez!
Guys, man, whatever happened to the blue-ribbon-wearing First Amendment wavers with freedom of speech on the internet?! Ya would think I was, like, a horrible person or something . . . pleeeeease!
"Curiouser and curiouser!", as Alice exclaimed in one particular unexplainable situation that she had alarmingly found herself in. Comments?

Hey Quenyan,
It's the luck of the draw on which moderators actually get your post as to what happens to it. Before your time here this board was run slightly differently, with stricter rules about four letter words. The site has since changed hands in ownership and some of the rules are not so strictly enforced as before. But some of the old ways die hard and some posts are modified by moderators who feel more comfortable doing that. Some of us leave posts that are not verbally offensive to users alone with the four letter words intact.
Chill out dude, it's the luck of the draw and moderation is a small price to pay for keeping this board sane and good natured.
If you ob ject to censorship by the MLHH mods, don't put in the traditional four letter word in the first place, because it might no get through.
Thanks for posting :)
I hold my hands up I remove all swear words Because I dont like Bad Language I never use it online so why should I let it get posted on the Bulletin Board !!!!!

. . . you saw my apology for misspelling your name yesterday, didn'tcha? There I was, havin' a debate (?) with ChrisH, another panic attack or anxiety disorder sufferer, about pharmaceuticals remedies (always a risky business!) and how I couldn't go for more than two days without sleep before I start vividly hallucinating, and HE can go for four or five (!!!), and then, havin' stayed up w/t help of many a cup of Java for a day and a half, I misspell your name. And I apologised. AND, I posted the same embarrassed picture then that I'm posting now . . .
Axel, I appreciate ALL forms of truthfulness. Honestly, I hadn't meant to "route out" who had substituted one word in my text for another. I'm just insanely particular about what I say. Even when I realise I've misspelled something whenafter I've posted, yeesh, it drives me nuts. Ask my wife. But to be sure, I won't use expletives here again. Watch.
So, thanks again for your honesty, Axel. You've endeared yourself to me even more. You're lookin' good w/ your long, dark, wavy locks. Man, I wish that I was up to your length already. Let's see how many more months it takes for me to catch up with you.
Best wishes in longhaired camaraderie,
uenyan (+:-)}
Honesty is the best Policy Quenyan
I dont Like Swear Words & I refuse to post them from anyone

I rather ob ject to being referred to as being referred to as "that particular Halifaxian", Quenyan! If you have a problem, address me by name, I would rather you do that. And it was NOT me who edited your post in this situation!
Your post that I earlier objected to was NOT because of your language (although that did not help), but was because of your attitude towards a young mother whose child was on the bus that Trolleypup wasa riding, you had a VERY condescending attitude there. There WERE several other members who objected to your use of the "F" word there.

Yes. NYC is a harsh, brutal place during rush hour. It wasn't the best sentiment. I have grown calloused to noise. Jeering is the symptom. I know I didn't help by criticising a crying infant and the mother who couldn't quiet down the child until they had disboarded. It was, by the way, an entirely hypotheical scenario, nothing he had actually conveyed in writing.
Why, just yesterday, a bolt t of the blue struck an electrical transformer in the Bronx. There was nothing that could've been done to prevent that. There had already been an over-one-billion-dollars upgrade in the energy grid over the past year. It thus, the lightning bolt, rendered a twenty block radius.
Specificly it was he swanky, upper class, he Yorkville section of Manhattan, without power. Fortunately, power was back on within an hour. But, DavidN, it must have been an awful predicament. Had I my(s)elf been there, I'd've helped anyone who asked for a hand, (k)not condescended to them.
Once again, I may have become calloused in my mid-century-mark year. Sometimes it shows, other times I'm the quintessence of empathy, altruism, and a generous spirit. It's difficult having accelerated perceptions amongst all the lower astrals floating around, waiting to engraft with us.
Forgive me, DavidN, I meant no harm. I've been intentionally made short work in an e-mail from here from (probably) a much younger, obstinate, immature student out of high school for my, I daresay, untraditional spiritual outlook and praxis. I'll be more vigilant from now on. I'm sorry . . .
Yours for becoming,
Quenyan
Thank you, Quenyan, for having the courtesy to apologize. Frankly, in this post you just made, I thought you were harbouring a grudge against me for my earlier respone to your reply to trolleypup's post. I thought we had clarified and worked things out back then, and were totally cool about everything, we seemed to be getting along GREAT then.
That is why I was a bit distressed to see your post today, and reacted rather quickly myself. I hope we CAN be friends, you and I. You HAVE made a lot of quality posts to the board, and a lot of your posts are cool and rather fun as well.
Take care,
David
Thank you, DavidN, my friend AND brother. We're cool, we HAVE been cool, we ARE cool! The storm's a'rumbling outside. Electrical storms, man, meseems they have a negative affect on me. That coupled with the unendurable tropical humidity. I know, no excuse. I must remain vigilant. Anywho, DavidN (and everyone present), I am nothing if not vigilant, the meaning of my actual surname, Effro, in Cymric (Welsh). Thanks for your understanding. Humans like you make it all worthwhile. The world is aswim with engrafter spirits. Thank you for making a difference.
Yours for becoming more and more,
Quenyan
Thank you, Quenyan! We ARE COOL! It HAS been awfully hot lately, thankfully much less so (low 80's) in Halifax (still with very high humidity) than in NY, where I understand it has been well over 90, with humidity to match. After the thunder forecast here in Hailfax tonight, much cooler, fresher and dryer forecast for tomorrow and for the weekend, better for EVERYONE's mood.
Take care,
David
I would post directly under it stating that your photo was taken without your permission and if not removed you will turn it over to the local office of the FBI like one or two others have done over there.
First it seems to me from the examples I have heard of this happening to before is that the only people they pick on are good looking guys. Us older guys don't seem to get picked (for some reason!). So I would first take it as a compliment Caesar, they are jealous as hell of you for looking good and making them look so sorry. I also would ignore them because the people who would do this aren't reasonable people and this photo thievery seems to have been going on a long time.
Maybe somebody here took on the buzzboard and had some luck?
I'd say you have hit on a longhair milestone that few of us will ever achieve :)
Pathetic butt heads! There are some on that site who seem to thrive on this kind of crap and feel the need to "role play" in order to fish for hair cutting/ shaving suggestions. I don't recall any of our members resorting to the reverse. I would lodge a request with the site's owner/moderator to remove the image from the site. I think he's pretty reasonable and also objects to this kind of abuse.
Bruce
... I would think that our moderators would react the same way.
Bruce
I would say just ignore it Caesar. Those losers over there are just jealous of your good looks. At this point, even if you removed your image(s), someone probably already has copies of them.
Absalom
They're really stupid.. They're probably jealous of your hair
So dont feel bad..Ignore it and they shall stop
This shouldn't bother you! Who cares? Some people are always simply jealous or thinking they're better than others because of their different self.
If ya know anyone who's a good hacker you could take revenge on them by deleting the data from the bard and website. ;)
Just ignore it. If you respond or threaten legal action that just buys inot their BS. This kind of thing happens from time to time on the internet .
Kevin
I would reply threaten to grow out their hair.
That's a good one.
And PEOPLE stop posting "just ignore it" posts the guy clearly doesn't want this kind of crap.
A lot of them are jealous and have mpb and can't grow much hair even if they wanted to. Their simple solution is to shave it bald and put down people that have hair. You have awesome hair and have good reason to be proud of it. Keep it flowing and lots of luck with everything.
Caesar - Yeah, people who put you down because of your hair length are probably jealous and certainly stupid. Do not change your life because of people like that. One thing - my cousin was the victim of a prank awhile ago where his brother put hair remover in his hair. My cousin used to spend an hour every day on his hair and it was really excellent hair - really long, fine, wavy, and blond. He ended up having to chop off almost all of it and he has been really, really devastated for a long time. Just when he was getting it back to at least looking decent, he had to have it cut again to get a job. My point to all this is that is just takes a second for some jerk to wreck something that means alot to you and that you have really worked hard to make look good. So, what can you do to just protect yourself? -- Doug
