Trolls, notifications etc
Mon Jun 25 2001

I see how it is. Matt alerts people to the fact that he's moving house and I, inadvertantly, alert people a few weeks ago that I won't be spending as much time as usual here and so the trolls go on the loose and think its OK to blast people, make them feel bad and generally have a go at everyone else.

I refer all the trolls reading this entry to;
To Me which was in reply to a comment, about comments. However, the same applies to entries in general, in particular the part near the bottom in bold.

I'm going to name names here because private discussion doesn't appear to work;
Darren, if I receive one more complaint about you altering other people's images and making them look good bad or indifferent, or in any way taking other people's work and doing so much as look at it, I will remove you and your diary. If I receive one more complaint regarding derogatory entries about other diarists, you account is gone. Your permission to access this machine will be revoked indefinitely and any subsequent attempts will be charged under the Computer Misuse Act 1990. Don't pretend like you don't know about it, go check it out. Its a jailable offence.

Nick, quit parodying. I shall stick my stake in the ground on this one later as well regarding so called 'Parody Diaries'. They're forbidden as of now. I've yet to see evidence of one being there to do anything but hurt the person they're parodying and thats forbidden already anyway by our terms and conditions.

Don't ANYONE dare mention Freedom of Speech to me regarding this entry. Your constitution and amendments are here and haven't changed in over a year. You ALL know what the rules are, and how they should be applied. The specific first rule is this;

Diary entries must not contain any illegal references as defined by the laws of the United Kingdom. Such references include, but are not limited to, software piracy, copyright infringement, racial or other hatred, defamatory or abusive statements about or to others.

Darren, you're outside this rule all too often. Particularly the defamatory or abusive statements about or to others and lately copyright infringement as well.

Get over it. Write your diary because you want to chronicle the events in your life, not because you want glory, attention and get it by abusing others here at this site. Get over it, or get out of it. You have been warned. And no, there is no negotiation. The first step will be removal of all links from the front page. The second step will removal of your account, after which time your permission to use the system is therefore revoked and without notice any further attempts would constitute a breach under the Computer Misuse Act 1990. The third step would then be to instruct the police to find you.

As I stated not so long ago when the issue of reader comments came up, if you only intention is to abuse others, then get real. Get out. You are not welcome here.

    Hi Steve

    Maybe it's irritating when people leave unimportant comments....or then again, maybe it isn't!!! I just wanted to say it's really cool to see such personal interaction of a site's creators.

    I like DD a whole lot....thanks!!!

    Thankyou, Steve. I have stopped writing the HappyKat diary about Darren now.

    You did a much better job here of doing what I was trying to do there.

    Yes, thank you Steve, I was getting bored with fending off hecklers such as Pringles and all the others who you didn't name coming to my diary and scorning me for no apparent reason. And even tho I never mentioned names as did Pringles and the Woman who Doesnt Cope and countless others, I am so thankful that you have put a stop to this name calling and hatered toward me, a humorus gay fun loving sort. Yes, thank you Steve for being fair and knowing all the facts. I kiss your feet Sir Steve! Say what you will about me now! I lay at your mercy ! I beseech you! I wallow in my own piss! I....well, you get the picture don't you mate?

    Seriously Steve, "stop parody" ?????

    *GASP* No worries, I will behave mate, you are a good egg and all.

    "stop parody" *LOL*

    Hi, there is something wrong with the system... I have not been able to log in, everytime I try, by clicking on Login, I get sent to the search page for the diaries.
    What's going on? I can't seem to get the message box that prompts me for my username & password

    Eh, look mate, the Trolls entry was more than I could resist. All in a bit of fun. I will abolish the bit of silly *GASP* if it offends.
    However, you being the sort of bloke you are I am offering it to you as lighthearted pun, and hope you will accept it as such.
    G'day!
    Nick

    So if the exit is clearly marked does that mean we can tell those who are nasty to us where to go? ;-)

    *just kidding, just kidding*

    I think this might have been blown out of proportion.

    I seem to *love* getting myself in the middle of these things. So here is my worthless comment, once again.

    I agree with Atlas. And that last remark about the freedom to leave...you're right, *everyone* has that freedom, including those who feel they are being "abused." Wake up, darlings.
