What is acceptable?

[doc]

pics or it didn't happen....

If my bike gets me to the next kiwi . For you I will wear the evidence. Don't tell anyone tho aye.

[Lias]

Pic removed

Thats not nearly offensive enough to add to my collection dammit :-(

[HenryDorsetCase]

What have I learned today?

I've learned you can attach images in PM's.

So, uh, thanks for that.

[Patch]

PM the image & I'll tell you.

Who remembers Crashe?.............Crashe was tried and executed online on a similar witch hunt to this. If my memory serves me correctly Crashe faced a similar one sided kangaroo court from some of the same people!
This time is questionably worse:

• We do not know the name of the defendant.
• We have no evidence.
• There is no right of reply.

If this is an online trial the least you lot could do is level the playing field, otherwise get of your collective pedestal.

someone just attach/link the dam pm and pic - otherwise this is just going to turn into a 100 post waaaaaaaaaaa thread, if it already hasn't . . .

evidence or its just another tiresome thread with a bullshit foundation . . .

At the risk of being banned from the Bitches Social group..... I actually didn't find the thing that bad, I've seen a shit load worse on here, and although I understand it was a bit off to send said image to a female via pm so she had no choice but to see it, many of us females on this site demand we get treated the same as the men, so if it was sent to a man in a pm do you think he would have got upset about it.... personally, I doubt it. I understand that the intention was to upset said recipiant..... oh look, it worked. Done.

The reason for this thread is simple. A member sent a revolting pornographic .gif image to another member for no reason other than to shock, offend and upset. It was unprovoked, apart from the troll in question being rebuffed on a General Biker thread. This troll took it to another level.

The question here is simple, what should we as a community expect the punishment to be?

All this other fluff being brought into play is insulting to the member that received the image, and will cause much shame for the poster raising it.

I guess I should state my case. I want him banned, never to post again. There are robust procedures in place to identify banned members re-joining.

I wont name and shame this wanker openly, news filters slowly around the place anyway.

How can this person be tried by a Kangaroo if
a) They haven't been named. Whose reputation are you hurting there?
b) We do, it just hasn't been shown. Probably because there is no "trial" without a Defendant.
c) Why would they reply if they haven't been named?

Expulsion. Ejection. Banning. Removal. Termination.

I didn't realise I had to have a rider on my posts that defined them as Bitches R Us sanctioned either

I agree with you as it happens, everyone has different levels of what they deem ok and what is not. While you may be a bit more liberal than some, obviously this HAS caused some very real upset, and it needs to be recognised (which it has! before I get spanked for saying nothing has happened) and dealt with.

We have rules about censorship of "rudey" images. There are to be no pink bits on display. Some of us chose not to censor what we can view, some of us do. There are, believe it or not some members that simply never, ever want to be exposed to explicit images, and neither should they be!

The fact is this was an image that someone felt extremely offensive (they are not alone in that either). They did not expect to see something like that in their face opening a PM that they had no reason to expect contained it. Sending it I think stepped beyond a troll, or a joke, it was not on!

[Number One]

Kick him in his hairy balls!

Wait, no...what are we talking about

Oh yeahthat...sorry - but I must be too much of a dirty bitch cos I kinda agree with Trudes on this one and would probably just return the favour and respond with something even more tasteless.

I know, I am just such a filthy bitch AND I should add - I apologise to any innocents I have offended or gotten in trouble...I am a bit of a naughty pic sender myself....I have ceased and desisted...for the most part

[Trudes]

Exactly Number One, why the double standards eh? Pretty sure there were only a couple of guys who got upset about the pics you sent them, and I suspect that the complaints had more to do with the recipiant not liking the sender.
Sorry, I don't get it, but then again, I'm not much of a lady and the only thing that makes me squirm is talk of anal sex (eh Number One).
I know what you're on about Mom, however I have faith that the mods will deal with it appropriately and this thread was not needed unless they do nothing about this person, in which case go hard with the thread and name and shame, however I suspect the person in question knows who they are and are probably getting off in knowing he's upset some people.

[carver]

Ooo the shame!!!- couldnt we just tar and feather him and have Carver double him up Queen St?

Double up?

as long as im on the back!

many of us females on this site demand we get treated the same as the men, so if it was sent to a man in a pm do you think he would have got upset about it.... personally, I doubt it.

Just because a bloke may not get upset at being sent an image like that, it doesn't necessarily mean to say he doesn't have a right to be upset by it. Nobody, male or female, deserves to be treated like that and have something so offensive sent to them.

As an earlier poster said - this is a community, and although it is lacking somewhat in terms of it being internet based, I don't think there's anything wrong with a community discussing what behaviour is acceptable and what isn't.
