Hi everybody.
I will try to keep this as brief as possible, but it is something that I think that people need to be aware of, since it happened to a friend of mine about six months ago here and now I am a victim too. Clothed and unclothed pictures that I had posted of myself on the Lit threads mysteriously appeared on a commercial website without my consent, knowledge, or permission. (And some of the captions that were included were VERY hateful and unflattering such as “Dickless Wonder” and “Stupid Country Hick”.) Maybe if something similar happened to any one of you, you would not react this way. I feel prostituted and violated that some unfulfilled WOMAN (in this case) would stoop so low and be so vile and mean. What this party did not realize is that there was one picture that I lost in a hard drive crash over 9 months ago and did not have a backup copy. That picture magically appeared on this website, so there was NO doubt as to the source since I shared it with only one person. (I just contacted the website via email and they are being removed as I speak—they were SOLD for profit! GRRRR!) My feeling is that this lady is so desperate, unfulfilled, and miserable; that she must get joy only in causing pain for others. This is something that I fail to understand and she has my pity rather than my anger. I wish only happiness for all my Lit friends and although attitudes like hers do exist, I am floored by the viciousness and senselessness of this attack.
My point is to use discretion in what you post, because this COULD happen to any one of you, too. I discovered this website totally by accident during random web surfing and just wonder if it has happened to others (albeit without their knowledge.) Just be aware that there are some people you may be chatting with on the boards that may be a “couple of French fries short of having a Happy Meal!” aka mentally unstable.
I make one request to my friends here…please no posts or PM’s on the threads to me as I am not going to be around the Boards until I calm down a bit and will not be reading them period. I may take a day, a week, a month or more off—whatever it takes to do get my trust in people back that was violated. My friends know how to get ahold of me if they wish. Be careful--I don't want this to happen to ANY of you!!!
Thanks for your time and best wishes--AA
