The hell with it...
I've probably managed to get myself banned from Digital Spy. No big loss at this point, considering the place has been so thoroughly contaminated by one poster's vindictiveness. But I finally decided to call a spade a spade. Normally I try to ignore her, but when enough bricks hit you in the head, it's kinda hard to do.
But this whole forum rules thing bugs the hell out of me. Has for some time. How do you respond "politely" and "respectfully" to other members who choose not to post "politely" or "respectfully"? It's like fighting with both hands tied behind your back. I like the way ani handles it over DTD - if you let her know when someone pulls that shit, she comes down on them like a ton of bricks. The mods over at DS take forever to respond, if at all (in this case, *not* at all). So I figure if they don't care what she posts, I have the same rights.
The really sad part about this whole thing - well, actually, there are two. First, that friends and family of Dirk's have to see that kind of crap on the web, and second, that there are people out there ignorant of her whole pathetic issue who will believe what she says.

Well, look for more pictures posted on DTD by yours truly - DS will, alas, have to do without my contributions anon... ;-)

I hope the Mustache pic is still on ebay when I get home. I need to scar some more people and I need to scan that magazine clip . . a lot of 'em actually. :(
One thought though, to be fair I say ummm equally horrific things about Paris Hilton. But then I don't go to a group of Paris Hilton fans and say these things. It's interesting though because you bring up friends and family and I gotta say personally I never invisioned DTD for those types either. Heck, as positive as they are, I'd think the discussion of the ahhhh "assets" of some the pictures on DTD is not something and exaclty something I'd want friends and family to see. I can't even imagine running into a thread discussing the sexiness of my dad online *LOL*
I think Tracy covers the "person" side fine so, I'm going for celebrity like 99% of all other LJ communities. =P
But that doesn't mean anythig goes clearly!
Even I have my limits.
Which are crossed by tabloids on a daily baises -_-
