Well, during my vacation, some stuff went down at the freecycle group. It seems the moderator tried to warn about a suspicious character getting free stuff and reselling it. She had been warned by other area Freecycle moderators. He wrote back giving a sob story about a dying family member and all the good he did for the world. She still banned him from the group. He got a little upset and started threatening her with a lawsuit for slander and claimed that he was nothing but a "God-Fearing Christian Man". She found an adult web site that he owned and posted the link. He said he'd forgotten about that one. Many people complained that the moderator "spammed" the group with a porno link, even though they had all jumped on her for accusing this "poor soul" of being shady. Moderator said "screw all you people", and now there is no longer an "ArlingtonTXFreecyle" group on yahoo.
Oh well, it's not like I had an unwanted iPod to give away to that group :) -- G-mail must not realize I'm and anti-social nerd, it keeps telling me to "Invite 8 friends to Gmail" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase Flash MX Pro from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=57 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:147864 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
