Please, please, please

Stop stealing my personal photographs for your own, pitiful use. It is not only disrespectful, but humiliating and sad. You have no right to do such things. I'm not sure exactly who it was that took my pictures and passed them off as their own, but I'm dangerously close to finding out. And when I find you, Lord have mercy on your sick soul.

What's worse is that these disgusting folk who stole my photographs have also betrayed my trust. I now know for a fact that it was someone who I have spoken to on Yahoo! Instant Messenger, someone who I thought I could trust. How do I know this? Because the perpetrator had was despicable enough to also use pictures of my friends and family.

In response to this alarming news, I've taken down all photographs of myself. And no, they won't be coming back. The damage is done. This goes for Yahoo! IM, as well.

And please, Mr. Sicko, if you're reading this, just come clean. Admit to it. You'll be far better off. I can assure you of that.


Your Dear Friend,
James

I've had that happen too. It's a pathetic thing to do. Just be yourself.....period! People are more accepting than you give them credit for but once you betray their trust they will probably never trust you again. All of the rest of us miss out because of your pathetic act of stealing his pics. Now we can't enjoy them. What it comes down to is you have very low self confidence and that is what you should be working on.....not being someone you are not!

James, for what it's worth. I am very sorry this happened to you. I've had frauds and liars many times and it has hurt my relationships with others because I become suspicious of everyone. I'm sure you feel the same at the moment.
 
Well, Rocky, if you know for a fact who it was, and that the person is a member here at LPSG, go ahead and name & shame. The rest of us have a right to know when we are dealing with sneaky scum.


Name names and let the membership see the troll.
 
My dear friend James,
I'm sorry to hear about your distress regarding the copied photos.:frown1:

But could you indulge me and...
Please, please, please give us a cropped out photo of your beautiful smile.:biggrin1:


Happy 2,500th post, dreamer!

Your present is my new avatar. :tongue:
 
Dude, that sucks, Rocky. Same thing happened to me too. A couple days ago, I had some kid PM me actually telling me that he had shown some girl he was IMing my pics claiming it was him and if I could send him my full pics to use. I just told him he's on his own. Jerks.
 
Rocky i'm not sure if you aware of it but all your vidoes are still in your gallery. Just to let you know . I took all my pics down today. I'm a musician and someone here decided to try to contact me and my fellow band members on facebook. That was without my permission. It was my mistake to have pics up here.
take care Rocky
 
How does one find out if their pics have been stolen? I have Yahoo Messinger also.....Because I have a web cam I usually turn that on instead of sending photos.....but I am sure I have sent pics...... to people on my Instant Messenger Friend's list. Just curious.

I can't imagine anyone trying to pretend like they are me, but who knows.
 
I discovered it when some moron posted one of my pics in his gallery here. Actually, another LPSG member (Mattness) pointed it out to me. Can you imagine how stupid you have to be to steal a pic from an LPSG member and then post it in an LPSG gallery as your own? Hasn't happened again as far as I know.

At least some of the more clever pic thieves and liars here steal pics from other websites. But, they get caught, too! And you all know EXACTLY who I'm talking about...
 
Jack, how did they manage to find you and your band mates on facebook, I'm assuming it wasn't simply through your pictures in your gallery on here as you need to type in the name of the person on facebook to get any type of picture up of them.

Did you have pictures of your band mates on here too, I'm just a little confused as to how anyone could find you and someone who isn't even a member on here on facebook, unless you had given them you and your band mates full names. I would have thought if you had, then that was kind of an open invitation for them to make some sort of contact with you, even if you didn't expressly consent to it.

Wow, people on the internet are getting awesome if they can find you and message you on facebook simply through pictures.
 
So sorry Rocky! I loved your gallery!

I have a couple of pics in my gallery - nothing too personal, but I was thinking of posting some more. Definately not now! You know, I'm more worried about my kangaroo getting out....:rolleyes:....I have it on my personal website also.

I hope you find the culprit and make him REALLY sorry!

Welcome back Rocky... you're a breath of fresh air in this very cynical and vicious online community
 
Rocky/James,

I think you overreacted but I can understand you're getting annoyed.

I see that you've uploaded some pics, that's good! It wasn't fair to deprive the group of enjoyment because of asinine acts of a few. Thanks for reconsidering.
