First..

YAY...and good morning everyone (I just got home from work---with 1 hour of overtime..and most of you are still in bed).

Pfftt I get more accomplished before you all wake up and i still have the entire day ahead of me to wheel and deal since some dickhead took galina's pictures down and I cant rub one out to them anymore.

Where is Sputnik? I haven't seen him post here in at least a week and I am missing him. Also Homey seems to be MIA as well. Where are you guys? While I have many favorites here you 2 are among the top of my list!

Please come back!

Sincerely,

By the way yesterday I posted a comment on IAFF that spelled out Robert Cote Rules with the first letter of each line but it got modded. LOL

I really don't think CS would have caught it since the content of the message was that of a supporter and not a "hater." So maybe Nigel or someone with a modicum(sp?) of intelligence really is looking over the posts.

Kerriella

P.S. I would like to register my name but I can't figure out how to do it as I don't have a Blog account or a web page of my own.

First of all, what went on here last night was bizarre.
Under no circumstances should you start requiring registration.
Can you figure out where those people came from?
Kansas, Missouri, California?

You know they have to be loosers to do this.
On the other hand, they did get your goat.
Unbelieveable

Rob, what are you going to do now?
Opportunities await you.
But, maybe you should do some research.

Can you do the secure message board?
Or maybe something else that requires registration?
Right now you may have few choices.
When do you think you'll decide?
In a few days I suppose.
Nevermind. Do it in your own time.

It makes me a troll that's got your rile up. It also makes me right about who you are in real life. You can't hide anymore Bob Corwin.

A little social engineering and we'll know exactly where you live and where to serve the lawsuit.

Mr Bubbles

Sorry! I didn't realize you were the only person allowed to address the trolls. I realize I haven't been a very important contributor to this site so I guess I'll be gone now.

Thanks for the blog Rob, I enjoyed it.

We know his name is Robert Corwin.

From his mocking post about his neigbor's house, we know the neighborhood. http://www.1674ramona.com/

Now we just get a team to go about knocking on his neighbor's doors and bingo, we'll have his address.

We'll notify the legal team and a constable will soon come knocking.

The interwebs are a dangerous place. I'll bet poor mel was sleeping with a 9mm last night.

I find it remarkable that CS couldn't turn off HIS moderation due to instantaneous and constant trolling until he turned it back on. Yet this site that is, for the most part, made up of the so called "haters" of his site has gone UNmodded this long and is only now being trolled BY CS or family and friends of his. I have absoulutely no doubt that it is at the very least someone close to CS and would be willing to place a hefty bet that it is the man-child himself.

Rob, you have an awesome site here and it's sad that CS has chosen to spend his time trolling you instead of actually trying to get himself out of the mess he has made. But don't worry I am sure he will only be on here for 1-2 hour spurts at most. Anymore than that would cut into his and Galina's naps.

No fight here. Just don't know why I was singled out. I did a lot of work on mailing info to the FBI, 4989A to the IRS, letters to Wells Fargo, Countrywide, the DA in Utah and Cali.

These guys are going to be over here whether I say anything or not so I'll just let it go.

Anonymous said...

Heidi,

Please don't go, I can't speak for Mr. Bubbles but I assume that he wasn't just addressing you but anyone that responds directly to these trolls.

Your another big reason why I love this site and to see you or anyone for that matter run off because of trolling would be an incredible loss.

I know I haven't been very vocal here but I have been lurking in the shadows for quite some time now and hope my next comment won't be taken poorly.

Every time those of us that are regulars here take offense to something that was the doing of the troll (CS), I am sure he feels like he is getting his "revenge" for the boycott. I don't know about the rest of you but the last thing "I" want is to see CS get any satisfaction from anything, even something so small and trivial as causing unrest at a normally peaceful blog.

Sincerely,
Kerriella

Heidi,

Given who's probably singling you out, I would take it as more of a pat on the back for your hard work than anything else.

@Anon with the 'legal team'.

What legal team? You only get one lawyer when they are court appointed.

Anonymous said...

Heidi,

Sorry if I offended you.

Friends?

Obvious points:
1. It's expensive to sue someone.
2. Lawyers don't take contingency cases unless the defendant has a lot of money.
3. It's very hard to win libel or defamation suits in the U.S. (Different in the U.K.)
4. You can't sue someone anonymously.

Conclusion:
Anonymous threats of lawsuits against individuals (especially those made on the internet) are worthless.

@Casey (aka anonymous)

Yet again, you show how clueless you really are. Here are two hints for you (one for each middle finger I'm holding up). You can only sue for the economical damages caused to your reputation, which would probably mean that you would owe Rob money. Second, It's already been court-tested, third-party comments can't be held against a website admin.

I'd also be curious to find out what legal team you are referring to? Is this another one of your good ol’ Casey delusions? Some free advice, if you have any money left from the 150K+ you stole, save it for the criminal case.

Mind you, if the anon really is casey, it puts paid to the upbeat naive kid image he's tried to cultivate on his blog.

Observe this observer:

Before long, with anonymous-like names like “657 Fulton”, “Angry Buyer on the 4th Floor” and “Frustrated on Fulton”, buyers in the building began to voice their anger and unrest. They wrote whatever they wanted and knew that there was no recourse. Who would ever find out the name of the real author? Libel and slander? Why not — it couldn’t be traced anyway? As I think back, even the blog’s host was never publicly named on the site.

The 657 Fulton blog then became a breeding ground for nasty remarks, rumor and conjecture about the developer, and his team. One derogatory remark led to another and led to another and led to another. Sarcasm and mean-spiritedness ruled. And, given the choice to stand behind their comments with “real names” or hide behind their comments using pseudonyms, nearly 100% of the people chose the latter.

Now, at this point in the story, most people would say, “duh”. We all know how the Internet and anonymity can lead to bad behavior. But, according to the developer’s version of the story, there were buyers trying to put positive comments about the building but those comments were later “moderated” by the host right into the recycle bin.

In other words, the anonymous host may have been making a bad PR problem for the developer even worse.

The denegration of the blog is the reasons why, about two weeks ago, the blog shut down and there is no trace of it now except in Google’s archives. I know “a guy” who told me that the developer forced the shutdown after his research uncovered the anonymous blog host and lawsuits followed. The developer’s main beef was that the host’s moderation techniques made him look foolish.

Thanks "T." I was wondering how to say the same thing.

You don't say it Robert Corwin, you delete it. You'll soon pay. I'm glad you let us know you've got enough assetts to to fund a California mortgage. That will soon be gone, to us, or to your lawyers.

@Heidi -- I posted last night asking that everyone stop feeding (paying any attention to or responding to) the trolls here. It's not a personal thing at any one poster, just a reminder that trolls only go away if they're roundly ignored.

Mr. Bubbles, Hecat & Kerriella

Thanks Kerri for the compliment. I've really enjoyed this blog and the people on it who post or lurk. I know you saw the exchange on "My Salvation" last night so you know I am one of the last people on EN who encourages trolls.

Mr. Bubbles, you didn't offend me and I guess we are friends. It was just odd that you singled me out when everyone on EN from last night through today can't help but encounter trolls because they have infiltrated the place. I think I am the least guilty but that's just my opinion.

It was nice to find a group of people on the right side of the bell curve, who feel like hard work and fair play aren't dirty words and might even lead to a fulfilling and prosperous life.

I suspected I lucked onto a group of fellow "libertarians", of all types, and I think I probably over personalized my feelings about my fellow posters, to my embarrassment.

Anyway, I'm also still feeling just a little raw about the death threats against Mel last night in "My Salvation". I feel frustrated that we can't forward those IP addresses on to the FBI. I had a stalker once upon a time, which is why I have that 9mm and I had a visceral reaction to those threats to Mel.

About every other person on EN now is a Casey lover so there is not much left to do. Sorry for the rant. Peace, Heidi

Anonymous said...

Sprezzatura @10:50

Yes I was there last night and saw your post and thought it was good advice. Maybe I'm the wrong Heidi but I can't see where I engaged any trolls. I gave Mel advice to ignore the troll, I gave my opinions on some posts from posters whose names I know, etc.

I did take it personally to be singled out and should not have, and for that I apologize. Again, I'm sorry for the trouble I apparently caused and will refrain from making posts in the future.

Anonymous said...

Casey, please wipe the drool off your chin. Two things I should congratulate you on. First Your English is improving, but you still have trouble with double vs. single letters. You may want to note that it is 'assets", not "assetts". Second, you posted before 9am, on a Saturday; I guess you can actually do something if you put your mind to it.

The logic in your post, however, is totally bereft of substance. The only mention in the article (from bloodhound) of any legal action was from a ‘guy’ the writer knew, and only stated that the developer was successful in having the blog shut down. This doesn’t mean that the blog was actually shut down by legal means, nor does it mean that any litigation was successful, or even started in the first place. I don’t think it bears mentioning that the blog was aimed at a corporation that actually had an economic stake in what was being mentioned. Can you explain how this blog could encumber any economic opportunities for you?

then again, the only lawyer Casey could afford would be Homeless Bob, Esq.

Heidi -

Please DO NOT refrain from posting. You are the backbone of this blog with your investigative skills.

Last night was a trip into the twilight zone for many of us. The death threats don't scare me, I too keep a .38 by my bed and know how to use it. But it does worry me that there is someone out there that has that type of reaction to a complete stranger. I know what I said was cocky but it surely wasn't meant as an out and out insult. Constructive critism with a touch of what I thought was wry humor. (That's what I get for thinking!) The threats weren't funny though and I think it shook a lot of people here up - none of us have even come close to saying those things about Casey - much less to each other.

Please don't leave, I really appreciated your support last night. Without you, Dolph, Jade and some of the others I probably would have dwelled on it way too long. But as usual, the intelligence, wit and comraderie that I find here made me realize that this was just an aberration - I am just thankful that my skin is not so thin that I threaten to kill and abuse when something doesn't go my way.

Rob,

Someone posted on IAFF under the name Robert Cote in his last thread. I thought it curious that your backtrack to this site was not activated. When you did post, you always listed the EN site in your comment handle.

I'm thinking that the trolls here are not Casey, but his family. Regardless, you have the IP's logged.

@Heidi.

We gals ought to stick together. Your knowledge and experience is extremely valuable to this blog, and you will be sorely missed if you leave because of one ridiculous person.

Please reconsider.

Rob Dawg said...

That was me. Casey just edited out the link. I think what's happened is he's having control issues. All this time he's convinced himself that he is master of his destiny, lord of a domain of his own design.

'Course now that he edits posts I have no reason to post there anymore. Unlike him I do have an online persona worth protecting. I can't let my posts get editted like that, changes context and meaning without the linkback.

Does anybody know what that troll business about "Robert Corwin" was all about? A while back I post about the Corwin in the Zelazny "Amber" series and thought it was a clever reference but now it seems like an addled brain spewing nonsense.

Anonymous said...

Metro;
It disheartened me to see how few got the reference. Why hasn't some smart studio picked up the rights for 3 movies? Harry Potter for adults. Rated-R for violence and se|?ual content. As to "Corwin." Yes, there's a little there but think about it. Can we manipulate the shadows? I like to think we can. Else why blog?

Thanks for the complements observer. I appresheate it. I've been taking a spelling class recently and have been learning to spell phone et ically. It sure helps a lot. I still run akross problems sometimes like with assetts. I don't have any, so I can't spell it.

Well, seeing as you have never actually seen a vagina, I think you're hardly one to comment on it.

Rob Dawg said...

Yes, fishy vaginal odor. I love the keyword ad search and seeding Adsense uses. That's why some of the post headers are strangely worded or tangential. It's a game to mess with their 'bot. I guess if my wife weren't off admitting patients right now I could be bothered to notice and respond to the lame troll going after friends and family. Yawn, I've been on the net long enough to know that ignoring it will only make some raise the stakes until they get a reaction and responding makes them feel empowered and fools them into believing they've struck a nerve.

You could have bacterial vaginosis.

I'm coming to this thread a bit late, but what the hell.

@ Mel:

While we gentlemen do have our odors from time to time, they can be easiser to deal with. One of the advantages of outdoor plumbing is ease of cleaning and maintenance. So far, nobody has seen fit to develop a speciality product whose job can be done by ordinary soap.

Having said that, one thing I've learned from IAFF is that there is a customer born every minute. I think I'll start buying bars of soap, rubbing the impressed logos off, and reselling them as Ogg The Caveman's Patent Wang Deodorizer. I can just see the commercials now: some hot young thing hangs on a caveman's arm and says to a distraught young man "I'm sorry honey, but he just smells better than you."

Text ads will be coming soon to a website near you.
