agreeing with El A´s point
I agree that El A can be a bit abrasive, but I fully support him on this issue.
Posting recognisable photos is a quick way to make you popular with other mongers but it is not a policy I support.
Let´s face it, a girl has gone out of her way to be good to you, often gone beyond what might be expected for the buck, and you repay her by publishing her face??
Mongering might be a pretty frowned on hobby, but it can at least be conducted with some integrity.
From the girls point of view, it is a thing that many of them worry about. They maybe do p4p in an area where no-one suspects what they do. Or are maybe trying to get a straight job. And posting their photo is damning them. How would you like it if they posted yours? ´Mongers of Rio´ - that would make a tasty cut-and-paste for some sleazy paper back home wouldn´t it??
From the point of view of mongers, the more people that post pictures that show full face, the harder it is to get the girls to pose as they end up not trusting anybody.
Many people have posted photos with the face obscured, which seems ok to me.
The vote count or exchange rate?
Hey TJ, just wondering.........while reading your report with my amante brasilera, she was curious to know if her vote would count too? :)
A threat I have received as Private Mail from TJ Fannatic
Guys,
I want to bring publicly to this forum a threat I have just received as Private Mail from TJ Fannatic. I think that this guy is crazy, and that the nickname he has chosen describes him well.
I have never said that I encourage revenge ... just that I understand the FEELINGS of a GDP whose face was posted on this forum without her permission and who is publicly shamed.
And revenge can be legal ... it can be insults, a lawsuit, cold shouldering, etc ... which you all deserve, TJ Fannatic.
Regards to all.
Bimbo Boy.
[QUOTE=TJ Fannatic]You made a point about a GDP getting revenge. Well I have posted a photo before and if I ever get assualted in Rio, then I will personally get your info. from this site and then sue you and anybody else I think might be at fault.
Since you PUBLICLY made it known that you support Brazilians attacking people who post photos taken of them with their consent, then you can be legally liable if there is no other recourse.
You seem to think that there are outsiders who would look at these photos. I tend to disagree. However, I DO KNOW that outsiders view posts. And your post advocated revenge, which is illegal! To me you advocated physically harming others.
My point is that if posting a photo is wrong then so is posting on this site in general.[/QUOTE]
