Believe me this was no innocent genuine girl. He/she was a troll who wanted lots of attention. The picture was a scan from a cheap UK porno newspaper - The Daily

its amazing how much of losers some poeple are really p*sses me off too glad the mods figured out and acted accordingly

I'm getting extremely fed up with these trolls.

Surprisingly SIMviation has very few troll issues, which is a nice thing compared to several boards I go to.

Want to see what trolls are like go to www.ign.com and search the plethora of gaming forums. Its rediculous lol.

That's not bad.

A few of us will remember that we've been here before regarding "Trolls".

After studying the Photo and reading the very long-winded and highly detailed post by XXX_XXXX, I very soon came to the conclusion that this person had all the hall-marks of the typical Troll inviting attention, which we have experienced in the past, for the same reasons.

I was sorely tempted to suggest this may be the case, but having had my hands slapped before for generating posts which are frowned upon by Members, etc, I thought better of it and refrained from replying.
Which is the reason why you don't see very much of me nowadays in the Discussion Forums... ...!
Your old mate Foz has learned through long experience, not to be too gullible in believing what you read, see and hear... ...!

Cheers all... ...!

Of course !!   It wasn't you I was thinking of at all - ..... Your post in fact gave us the opportunity to tell the whole funny story

Your post was how we mods were all thinking at the start of this ... & as far as I know you didn't slate Rollerball -


At the end of the day it's a small storm in a teacup - barely anyone will have noticed all this & it's time to move on  8)

flip-flopping yooper!

Oh yeah?!

Well at least we a....

Oh..yeah, this is the kind of stuff to avoid...

The lesson being...never post before taking your Ritalin

You have no IDEA of how glad I am that i stayed out of this mess. But now I gotta say a couple of things.

We lost Stormtropper and Rollerball, two members which I will deeply miss. I really hope they will come back  :(

Mods should take a lesson out of this aswell. I can't believe how they came to "fli-girls" protection like puppies and turned their backs on a LOYAL member like Rollerball. That's unbelievable and should not happen at all
Ender's lack of should I call it "professionalism" was obvious. He let his personal feelings intervene and misused his "powers".
The ciritizism is harsh -  I'm aware of that...but you should know me by now, that I'm always straight forward.

Mods screw up this time, and it costed the SimV community dearly

Wherever you are Storm and Rollerball, please consider the idea of coming back.

Nexus, you don't think we feel for Roger and Stormtrooper? I think you are a bit off base here in saying "This time the Mods screwed up". I actually think that you as many members have NO IDEA how much was going on behind the scenes trying to figure out how to handle this delicate situation!

This shot is taken from the "Admin Forum". As you can see, The Fli-Girl" issue was of utmost importance. Remember, this thread did not start because of the validity of Linda, "AkA Fli-Girl", it started because one of our members "manipulated" Fli-Girl's Signature picture. It did not matter if it was a male or female! These are things you do not do at this site! The first 3 pages were dedicated to finding out who did this. And as all of you know, it takes allot of posts to acquire 10 pages!



For those of you who thought we were "not taking immediate actions", I hope you realize we were doing all we could. It isn't that easy to make decisions when you are dealing with somebody who isn't them self to begin with. Where do you draw the line? We are all what we post and we make the best judgments we can. We are not "The Internet Police", we closed it all down pretty quickly!
I would say the other!

It's not that we came to her protection simply because he was acting like a girl.  He hadn't done anything to cause a commotion and as far as we knew, was a perfectly legitimate member.  We had our doubts, but there was no proof.  When the whole thing flared up, we tried to curb it, but it got out of hand with incredible speed.  Remember, this is Thursday and Tuesday, no one knew anything about it.  We had no choice but to attempt to protect a person who possibly had done nothing more wrong than post a fake photo.  Other than those suspicions, this whole thing rather came from left field.
