It's not against the law to joke about paedophilia on the internet.
Depending on the contents, it can be against our TOS and it is certainly enough to warrant an investigation by our host. We didn't want that kind of attention then and we don't want it now.
BC knew what he was doing when posting about paedophilia here. Defend him all you want but he is not welcome here. He won't ever be.
I was referring to when bodie CALLED THE POLICE on him. It may be against a TOS and if he is banned, then so be it. I am not defending him, I am only saying it is no reason to call the police and I did not have anything to do with it nor did he use my computer.
I have no idea what the paedophile jokes are you claim BC made? On 25th April 2012 at approx 0500 hours (Uk time) a post was made on Zomg by BC who was posting under the name of 'blamethenile' threatening to 'penetrate Bodie's sons hairless butt hole' along with some pictures of young boys in swimming trunks. Is this the 'joke' ? Where is the punchline? Is this hilarious? Are the members here slapping their thighs LOL 'ing at what a rib tickling corker that joke was.
The likelihood that BC would have been posting jokes to me is pretty slim considering we were not friends. He blamed me for the changes Adam had to make to ZOMG as i joined the admin team at that time. The board was virtually wiped as it was filled with posts about murder and rape. Those posts were made by BC and Pig equally and later Bruce. Adam didn't want his forum filled with it.
BC decided it was me that had implemented the changes. He did this without any just cause or evidence. Bruce was particularly annoying and i must confess i did question everything he posted. However, i was not responsible for any alterations made to his posts or his username. I was blamed anyway. I was also not responsible for changing Pig's username. I was blamed anyway. Finally BC found that his name had been fucked with too, and the post about my son appeared the following morning.
The fact was that the person who was fucking with account details and posts was the one BC was laughing and joking with. This was quite funny to myself and the other admins. The admin who was responsible was deemed to be the 'safe' person. The cool person. I had fuck all to do with it but I couldn't say who it was either.
So not only was a post made that threatened my five year old, the hate behind it was at totally the wrong person.
Now i don't know what the protocol is for dealing with shit like this. I can honestly say no one has ever approached me before about intending to penetrate my childs butt hole. Nope. No one. Friend or foe. I have never before dealt with anyone joking about my son in a sexual manner. If it was intended as a joke as you claim. The fact that BC lives on the other side of the planet really left my options limited as to what action to take.
Action was inevitable after posting such content. I couldn't ignore it.
I made an inquiry here as to the nature of the posts that got BC banned as it was before my time. I was informed by several members that it was material of a cp nature. I was also told of another website where a similar incident had occurred resulting in a ban also.
I should also state that a couple of people thought BC was just trolling. That it was likely to be his sick idea of a joke. They also said that it would be his 'just desserts' if the police quizzed him - just for being a twatt.
I was referring to when bodie CALLED THE POLICE on him. It may be against a TOS and if he is banned, then so be it. I am not defending him, I am only saying it is no reason to call the police and I did not have anything to do with it nor did he use my computer.
So i made an enquiry to Howard County Police Dept using the fill in box on their website. I made no phone call at all. Phone calls cost money and i didn't have much at the time. In fact when it became clear that i would have to invest both time and money in pursuit of this i declined any further participation.
I was contacted first by Lieutenant Tom Ehart
Commander / Family Crimes and Sexual Assault Division
Criminal Investigations Bureau
Howard County Police Department
410-313-2630
He took the details of my enquiry. I did not tell him any bullshit. I sent him a copy of the post i had removed, along with the copies of the admin logs to prove the post had come from that ip address and had not been altered by staff. I didn't need to over emphasise anything. He said it was something his dept could help me with.
I received an email from Mr Ehart on 2nd May stating that after some investigations he has discovered it is not his jurisdiction. He said the area is covered by
Laurel Police Department
811 Fifth Street
Laurel, MD 20707
301-498-0092
He forwarded my complaint to them and they did contact me but i did not persue the matter.
I also reported it to his internet provider who told me to report it to
www.cybertipline.orgI stopped looking at the email account. It was one of several that i rarely use. I checked it for the first time today and the cybertipline organisation sent me an email in June asking me to clarify. That email did not get any response from me as i only found it today.
My issue with the people on zomg was that they called the fucking police on my boyfriend. Yes, the actual police. That really pissed me off. And then someone, i personally think it was Adam, bombed my inbox. But calling the authorities on my boyfriend generally is going to make me flip out.
You claim you didn't know him at the time.
It doesn't really matter what I think about pedo jokes as I didn't make any. i stayed out of it, I know he can be a jerk sometimes. But that is no reason to call the police on someone
I thought you did not meet him until June.
Duckgirl I did not let him use my phone or laptop for anything and I had no idea what was said or done until after the cops were called. I had nothing to do with it. nothing. I just think it is silly to make such a big deal over a joke. And a joke someone else made, too.
There is a general unwritten law around here that no one talks to the police unless it is to do with rape or kids. As the post was about raping my five year olds 'hairless butt hole' i think it is quite clear why i applied the same rule here.
So, you have no control over what your man posts, he posts whatever he likes. He never made any dodgy posts on your stuff despite the fact that you hadn't met when the posts in question were made? you have stated this several times and yet i see no one accusing you of letting a complete stranger use your things.
Just to clarify then, you managed to 'stay out of it' when his post was made on 25th April that resulted in my action to CALL THE COPS even though you didn't meet him til June!
How is it you are so 'flipped' out about an altercation that occurred between myself and your current partner when it was (as you keep saying) two months before you met ?
It makes little sense to me. I hope i have cleared up any confusion.
You seem to be lost in your own thoughts.
