    That would be true if I were in the habit of asking for PMs- I rather liked being able to see the beauty of some of the WFers without having to ask for PMs everytime someone mentions a photo session.

    I also liked the prospect of some of the other possibilities that could come from having such a room, like the erotic stories, sexual discussion and advice, things of that nature.

    It is just another failed expirement that was ruined by the immature.

    Nup, it was ruined by the fact that people weren't thinking through what they were doing before doing it.

    As Tamar has said many a time, if you post something on the internet and expect it to stay private, you are definitely misleading yourself. Honestly I just hope that the posters involved have learnt their lesson and keep this to other messageboards designed for the purpose where they can be completely anonymous, or keep it to pm's among people they trust.

    Naw... but Dan, I think the concern is that it isn't just mickey-taking. If you know enough about someone and have a big enough grudge, you could make their RL uncomfortable.

    That ain't funny.

    Tip: if you are stupid enough to have acted in a way that make people begrudge you then stay off the internet completely.... forever

    And i still dont see how pics of nobs or boobies could make someone life difficult... what are they gonna do, show them to a potential employer? I'd just say 'yah its my nob... so what?'

    A lesson for us all i think
    I came to tbbs then here from forums (massive places, 100 times the size of this) where everyone knew everyone else by name, there were regular meetups and not a lot of secrets.
    All these daft nicknames and hiding behind personas has never made much sense to me :shrug:

    I just think it's right to apply caution... sure, everyone here is pretty trusting of one another but once you have pics leaking everywhere you might get some creep trying to track you down because they think it's an open invitation or summink.

    Not everyone's pleasant out there :shrug:

    The point is about never revealing more on the internet than you would be comfortable with people who know you in real life knowing. :)

    I don't see a reason to hide my real life identity on these boards, because even as an anonymous poster, I wouldn't reveal anything that I wouldn't want other people I know finding out, or that could be used against me.

    just so i've got this right, we're now kowtowing to a bunch of people whose lives are such failures they measure achievement by what they can get away with on the web? :marathon:

    wouldn't simply having an invite-only room have worked? that way you're only going to have people in the room who have generated enough trust?

    ^ um, is that not essentially how it did work? You had to be invited by Tamar, Elwood, Nick or O2C?

    Well, as in you requested to be invited and then you were or weren't?

    By invitation only meaning that instead of a public announcement only those invited would know of the forum's existence. An invite by PM, not a public request to apply for admission.

    No...the room was there for all to see and you had to ask to be allowed to view it.

    Which, in hindsight, probably wasn't a good idea.

    You know what? Those who deserve it already had their chance to enjoy, and then it was shut down before the sad, pathetic bastards who would ruin it got a chance to pull any real chickenshit stunts. All in all, an ideal outcome.
