The message by "nelliedelephant" was left after I sent her a PM explaining that she was not allowed to post a copyrighted photograph of the Taj Mahal she stole from the internet.
Just an example of the occasional crap we have to put up with from some people.
yes sadly, this kind of behavior towards the mods and aediles isnt exactly isolated. When people ask Where are the mods? - these days more often than not they tend to be off fending off flack like this or tracking down the ever increasing abuses of the sites code of conduct. Its a sad state of affairs to be sure.
Well there's no guarantee that she actually got it at all... in any case, I thought the best way to deal with it might be a bit of public shaming. Hopefully now she'll go away... or start being sensible for real...
I read this thread and all I can do is shake my head at such a childish response. My response is, thank you, Sam, and thanks to the other mods as well, for all the work you do in keeping a semblance of sanity at caedes. I believe this is the point where Keith will probably jump in again.
You're right, it isn't right but I don't think you can get banned for being petty. I agree with Sam & just hope that she'll read this thread & learn some manners. I'm not holding my breath but hey.... you never know.
Weirdly, it always seems to be the ones who steal others images and then get all bent out of shape playing the innocent victim when they get discovered and their images get trashed. That or they just start behaving like their mental age is somewhere in the region of their shoe size.
