Posted By: Bob Baroner In Response To: He was taking big risks with his web site, too (Bill Carton - the Roadie)

I'm not defending Sam Freedom, but I do notice how everything is spam to Carton.
- Spam this, spam that.
- I'm gonna report you for spam.
- I'm gonna get your domain shutdown for spam.
- You're lucky I wasn't around or I'd make you lose your domain.
These "I'm going to get you" tactics will only get you so far until undeserving folks get sick of you and start conspiring against you.
I know you are a well respected, well-known, spam fighter, but you cross the line a lot. To top it off, you think NO ONE is to be trusted and you probably think that 99% of the sites on the internet need to be taken down by the law, too.
It gets really old, really quick and it seems to me that anyone who posts a URL here needs to think twice because if Carton doesn't like you, he'll report you for spam. When Carton is around, it's like Nazi Germany around here and Hitler just entered the room. This cannot be a good thing for any forum. People will eventually leave in droves because even though they are innocent, if Carton does not like you, LOOK OUT!
I could be wrong, but look at the archives. Carton has a long history of crying "spam!"
I remember not too long ago someone accused me here of caring too much. Jeezus!!!! I care too much?! Look at this Carton guy. He's like some self-appointed digital superman or something. He cares about spam so much that he'll label anything he doesn't like as spam.
Wheew! Now I understand what people mean when they say "you gotta get out more."
Carton, YOU GOTTA GET OUT MORE.
Bob Baroner
PS. Don't look now, but the sky is falling, Carton. And your neighbor is plotting to take over your property. LOL.
Get a life, man!!! Go after real spammers, not petty self-appointed gurus that like to post non-malicious links to help their page ranks.
Sam did nothing wrong. Well, at least that is he did not spam anything or anyone. Your just spam happy, Carton. But eventually, it'll bite you or others that treasure you in the ass. Then, all the good that you DO do will not mean much anymore as your reputation will be shot for crying wolf too much and accusing non-deserving folks of being spammers.
PPS. I for one will tell you that if this keeps up much longer, I will be spreading the word about you on many forums because us regular folk have a lot to lose with someone like you around. Even though you do a lot of good as far as catching REAL spammers, you do a lot of harm as well. And it seems it is starting to outweigh the good things you do.
> Selfish people never think that way.
> And could have cost him his web site(s) if folks reported his spamming.
> Lucky I was too busy to adopt him as a new pet spammer.

PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials. By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
