In loving memory of a dear friend :-)

TN just won't be the same without you :(



For those of you who don't already know, she is just the latest, in an ever growing line of good female nudists, that has decided that this is -not- a place, for the true nudist.


With the way some guys treat the ladies, and the lack of effective moderation here, it's No wonder that there is such a big gender imbalance.


Still have something to tell you beach, but lost your addy, please write to phi11free.





ps. ... Glenn sends his regards ;-)


pps. ... Now I also have a message for you from Thomas! ...
(Go On! ... Trust me! ... I'm a Doctor!... hehe! ;-)

Inappropriate Pictures and Behaviour.


Given that action is only taken when a number of complains are made,
Perhaps we should, if we come across an inappropriate picture,
bring it to everyone's attention by posting it on this thread,
to ensure that the required number of complaints ARE made.

Here is my latest encounter.
I have just received this bulletin:
"Q: Timdog42 (male) has somewhat suggestion picture of a woman's breasts as his profile picture. Is this appropirate on this site?
A: i don't think that the pic being inappropriate is the problem as much is that one's profile pic must be of themselves, and not other people. since the profile is listed as male, the profile pic should not be of a female. i would have to agree that the pic being used is inappropriate in the fact that it is not tasteful!"

I agreed, so I put this comment on the pic asking him to remove it.

"I feel this photo is inappropriate for our Naturist site, please remove it. Thanks Phil."

His instant response was to post this comment on my pic:

timdog42 Said at 01/23/2009 15:29:10...
"I think you are a fucking homo and take this pic down ahole"
I have now flagged him with this comment.

(Re timdog42.
I posted this comment on the pic asking him to remove it:
"I feel this photo is inappropriate for our Naturist site, please remove it. Thanks Phil."

His instant response was to post this comment on my pic,
timdog42 Said at 01/23/2009 15:29:10...
I think you are a fucking homo and take this pic down ahole"
I do not think we need this guy here.
Phil.)


I repeat, I do not think we need this type of guy here.

If you agree with, me please do the same.

Phil.

ps. He has now changed his profile pic and made the offending pic "Truenudists only"

RE: Inappropriate Pictures and Behaviour.

I'm glad you posted that Phil, because I gave this person the benefit of the doubt at first. I even wrote an email to the person who wrote the bulletin and it stated: "Even though she's up 'front' on his profile, there's still a pic of him
in his pics. and as his profile states, his relationship status is
'complicated'.
There have been other 'single male' profiles with just a few pics of
the member, I mean the person, and many of females on the profile.
TT1's rules allow that, first pic must be of you, and then anything
else can be posted.
Doesn't state that the lead photo has to be of the individual or couple. Maybe that rule should be readdressed.
Why don't you email him (the TN member) and politely ask him what's up and why? Before
we all jump to conclusions, there might be a legitimate reason, if not,
he'll get the point that there are concerns.
worth a try..."
But in light of that response to you Phil, I guess that the original post was right on the money, thanks for sharing...
But maybe that rule should be addressed, there are many pics on the profiles i.e. pics of body painting that are clearly marked with names of sites of origin, and wonder if those who posted such pics have the legal right to do so. Isn't this the same thing we were all up in arms about with the 19 female here who had her pics posted on another site? We shouldn't be hypocritical. Pics posted on one's profile should be pics of only them whether by themselves or in a group, but the pics should be their own photos or photos of them.

WOW...okay...Phil I think most of us agree that as a community we need to do what we can to improve the quality of life around here a bit. I'm not sure this is the best way to do it though. Outing people in a forum is generally considered bad form. I'm not saying that the response you got from this guy was not out of line...it clearly was. There however are many ways that a thread like this can turn very ugly very quickly. My suggestion would be to post bulletins regarding the offending persons profile in order to bring it to the attention of a wider audience without the entire community having to get involved. This would provide for a greater response while at the same time protecting the the dignity of the offender that perhaps just made a mistake. Just my opinion on the matter though.

Steve, if he had "just made a mistake" he could have removed the picture and either sent a polite reply or said nothing. He has efficiently demonstrated the type of guy he is by his response. (he has also not removed the picture) I do not enter into discussion with his type. I would hope that anyone that writes that type of message in reply to a polite request is NOT welcome here and will be dealt with in an appropriate manor. Furthermore, why not "out them" If they refuse to abide by the site rules and guidelines THEY SHOULD NOT BE HERE. And, if it is known that breaking the rules will have this result, they might pay more attention to them. If we have to self police the site to keep it a nice place to be, SO BE IT.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Ahhhhhhh

That's better!

Phil.

Dang Phil, I have to agree with you again. There was absolutely no reason for him to give you a response like that. This site is also about RESPECT, and he doesn't sound like he has much. A simple "sorry, I will change the pic" would have done nicely.....

He's now made the pic for friends only. I know one of the people
who has him listed as a friend. I will bring it to her attention. In
the meantime, I know how you feel. The other night (early morning - 5am
my time) I couldn't sleep, so went on chat. There were 14 people in
the room, when I entered. All male ,listed as straight. Most married.
7 of them had cams on. Out of the 7, 5 were clearly masturbating. When
I said that really wasn't appropriate and they should put the cams on
there faces, they made jokes about it. One actually attempted to
"whisper" but failed, lol, and said uhoh someones's not happy. I
responded that I was very unhappy as should be any "certified" true
nudist. (All the masturbaters were certified). As they all ignored my
requests, I flagged each and every one of them. I remember three of
the names and I keep an eye out for them when I'm on chat. I was
sorely tempted to "out" them on the forum. I decided against that as
that would actually break one of the rules of both chat and the forum.
No trolling. I also feel that "outing" people on the forum, could so
easily go from self-policing to a "witch-hunt". Which it shouldn't be.
The guy you had the problem with is a low-class moron. Let it go
through the proper self-policing channels and he'll be out of here
before you know it!
Jen
p.s. Does any body see the irony in my experience? 14 "straight" men all jerking off for each other?

Thanks Jen, hope you're right.

Me too Steve, If it can't be controlled, maybe we should be talking about shutting it down!

Now I'M beging to worry about this place going down hill.

I agree Phil. maybe it should be shut down. The last thing I want to see is for this site to turn into just another porn site.....

I've been on the chat just a couple of times, so I can't say a whole lot about it, but the more I hear about it, the more I am happy that I don't go there....

Not you, Phil! At least wait until I've had a chance to post to your poetry group! The site is going through growing pains. When enough people get flagged and called out fo rbad behavior, it will calm down.
