WARNING!

Quote from Baron:

I'm sorry this happened. We've been working hard at getting all of the information together for reporting this idiot, and I've also added some additional code to the PM system to prevent this sort of thing from happening again. Occasionally, we have to deal with severely disturbed people like this... not just trolls and spammers, but I mean really fucked up shitheads like this child porn guy, and unfortunately this is one of those times.

My only wish is to meet this jackass in an alley somewhere one day..... It wouldn't be pretty.

Thanks for your attentiveness to this. My thoughts and prayers are with the child. May the authorities find her, and soon, and see to her safety.

Quote from denner:


This is going to destroy this site if you guys can't do something about this. I've already turned off the private messaging feature and now it isn't even safe to click on any of the normal threads.

Ridiculous.

I agree with Denner - it's one thing for this person to send pictures by PM, but another for them to be posted in what seems to be a "normal" thread.

Could you please disable inline HTML for users without both

* a minimum number of posts (50, 100, or more)
* a minimum period from time of registration (1 month, 3 months, or more)

Quote from morganist:

I wasn't sent anything. I haven't had anything pop up to my knowledge. This makes me think it could be Bearice. He has an agenda against Joe and I supported his posts, because they were harmelss, until now, if it is him? Making me think that he has decided not to target me.

I received emails from him too. But they were harmless, which makes me think that it is not him. But why would I not be affected?

Does any one know what is going on? As I haven't experienced this, either by luck or the reason above, what do I have to look out for?

Would Bearice go this far? He said he hated pornography. Do you think it is him?

This is a strange post... can you verify your whereabouts?

Baron what am I suppose to do now? I've cleared everything from my computer, I am actually going to format as well. But now my IP is cached on the images website, authorities get control of that hosting and will have a list of all computers guilty of viewing that material. I am furious right now..

replace the "tit" with "dick" and shaddup

Why is this strange. What I am saying is that I have not experienced what you have. In that no one has sent me pm's with that content. I know that Bearice does not like Joe and has a vendetta against. Therefore I am saying that it could be him because he is has a motive to cause the site harm.

Thanks Baron. I am pretty sure I got another one in my PM but now I know to check to see the history of the sender before opening and that dick has zero posts.

If someone views child porn then they are a sicko. If they are pushing it on those disgusted by it, then they are a psycho. Please keep this thread on the ET server as a record for all of us and let's hope this nut is put behind bars for a long time.

I am no techie so some dumb questions that I need answers to please. What is the position with my PC? Is opening the pm the same as downloading it to my pc? I closed it before half the image appeared.

My thinking is that this image is not on my pc - am I correct?

If you're concerned that something might be on your computer, the best thing to do is clear your web browser's cache. How this is done really depends on which browser you have, but the process is essentially the same, which is to go into your browser's settings menu and you'll find an option to clear your cache.

Got a PM too. Didnt appear to have any pics in it but who knows what was going on behind the scenes. I posted here as a record of the event.
