BCG Meet up 2009 Page 124

Just for the record, I don't really have anything against you, but it was the principle of it. Basically what you're arguing is that your feelings are more important than those of people who didn't want their photos shared. Sorry Ruby, but how does that work exactly? You don't like being upset, and we all understand that, but what about the other people?

Just for the record I was a bit wound up at that point and I totaly accept people were quite upset and as I said, we all make mistakes.

If anyone wants to laugh at pictures of people, here's one of me demonstrating why I've never cut or dyed my hair red: (because it really doesn't suit me).

But I did draw the line to be honest that after apologising I was still getting it in the neck and yet, and I am not having a go at Godot, he made a mistake too and we really should move on, but people were not so quick to have a go at him for something worse. That was the only reason I was upset because that felt like a total kick in the teeth.

But anyway, again, I apologise for that incident.

When I saw those pics that time, it was only a couple of pics, I didn't have access to the account and yet people were upset that Danny had shown them to me and we apolgised and it eventually got dropped.

Certainly I, and so I guess some others too, weren't aware (until recently) that you'd only seen a couple, rather than given access to the whole collection. We don't know which you saw of course, but I'd hope that in showing you, Danny only sent those which omitted the people who were particularly expressly uncomfortable about those photos being shared. So uhh ... yeah, basically what I'm saying is that it evidently wasn't as 'bad' as it seemed, so I apologise for bringing it up again.

Ahh it okay Mr. Aaron. I of all people know where you are coming from so I understand.

I'm sorry but I have a limited sympathy, I'm by no means siding with Godot but you have a photo taken of you and you then put it on the internet, you have to take on the risk of it being leaked to people on a public forum!

Probably someone else has already mentioned/raised this, but some people didn't know that their photos were being taken in the first place. Certainly from the first 2 meets, I know that zooo wasn't aware that her photo had been taken, and was rather uncomfortable at that alone, let alone then having them put online. That they were only accessible to people who'd been at the event(s) was a small but thankful consolation.

I vote big fans are made avalible to everyone. And burkahs!

Even my own mother didn't recognise me like that.

I find my natural colour doesn't suit me

Well here's a picture of Sootyj after his latest critique feedback.

As for photos of me, for some reason I'm not too bothered about other people seeing them (as long as they don't forward me the bill for the inevitable ensuing psychological treatment). On their heads be it. I just REALLY don't want to have to see them myself. That really does distress and make me very uncomfortable. (Hence the heavily effect-ised avatar, and previous very dark one.)

What I'm not amused by is people taking and doctoring/editing/etc those photos. And I wouldn't do it myself to anyone else.
