| − | == web-app.org ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Hello Simon,
| |
| − | | |
| − | I noticed that you have been having some trouble with the folks from web-app.net coming over and editing the web-app.org domain listing. I tried to correct up the listing a little while back. I see now that you have reverted it back to its former state before I edited it. Perhaps this May 13 reversion was due to an (understandable) assumption that the web-app.net folks had come back and changed the page again. However, this time it was not the case as it was only me working on the page trying to fix it up after all that has been done to it in past months.
| |
| − | | |
| − | There have been some changes in that Carter, the original owner, has given the web-app.org site to me out of frustration over the same sort of thing, being constantly bothered by the folks from web-app.net and not having time to deal with it. Carter no longer wishes to be contacted about Web-APP which is why I entered my contact information on web-app.org's page. I am now the legal owner of the domain and the Web-APP project. Another change you might have noticed is that for most purposes we have just recently reverted to the earlier, formal, spelling of the project name, "Web-APP", in place of the slang "WebAPP" as has been most commonly used in recent years. We will continue to use also "WebAPP" as a slang name for the script, but the community and project should be properly known as "Web-APP". This is why I made that change you noticed in my last visit to the page.
| |
| − | | |
| − | After the May 13 revision, the domains listed in the related section are the web-app.net-affiliated sites. The sites I listed in their place prior to this on my last visit are truly the directly related sites that actually support the Web-APP project.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Could you please allow the AboutUs page for Web-APP.org to be kept as I edited prior to the May 13 reversion?

Yes, I know lots of fonts do it, but those same fonts also have a curve off the bottom of a u, for example. And here we have a without it and a t with it. Really I don't care that much.

We ''do'' have tutorials, telling users how to use the wiki, do we not? Then why aren't we telling users how to remove information themselves? Telling users how to do things themselves encourages them to use the wiki.

Maybe I have completely the wrong idea of AboutUs - I made the logical connection that since it's a community, communication is important, we talk to each other; if someone's unsure of something and someone can help, we do so, etc etc. If someone isn't sure how to remove information, or they ask a (to me) question they can easily answer themselves, my first thought is to tell them how to answer their own question, rather than do it for them.

We have provided a accurate reference for this thread you may use before locking it, Thank you.

| − | Keep in mind you are not the only website these users troll (Read my post in the history to further understand)
| |
| − | You will be removing and editing this reference for years to come I kid you not, every single day as this will happen over and over again, numerous IP Addresses, numerous user names, I don't want this and I'm certain you could use all those hours more productively on another area of this Wiki.

| |
| − | Art Sapience IS a pro-pedophile site. There are pictures of pre-pubescent girls with lace bras and thongs. The users discuss their attraction to little girls and post pictures of models and talk about "girl Moments" where they get to see little girls underwear on the street and where to go for girl watching. Of course they don't want it catalogued in google because in the US many people have been arrested for this!
| |
| − | | |
| − | Dark Giant is one of the site owners so of course he is very worried about his name being out there as a pedophile.

| |
| − | | |
| − | I have asked your company (AboutUs) on numerous occasions to put a lock on the reference of our site ArtSapience.com until we have opened the rest of our domains and you and everyone else will obviously see what our company is about and that it is NOT illegal or pro-pedophilia, teen models yes but professional photography only and not every person that takes photos for a living is making pornography, supporting pedophiles actions HELL NO! there is a discussions and polls for people to talk about the law and various things about the inudustry but we do NOT think people should do anything to harm a child or to do anything to support those pedophilia actions, discussing the industry that we are referencing for at least a month before we open the wiki or search engine would be consider market research like any company would normally do but your company appears to be content to slander us and offer no means of correcting these false allegations you are forcing us to be associated with your company via Google and alike which is a major part of the internet share, this means a great deal of financial struggle your company is potentially causing us and how is this to be recovered. Your company willingly informs the world lies about our website and offers no means of correcting these lies and makes changes to our websites reference with out informing us.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Our website reference is being promoted as an adults only pro-pedophilia, As a loving husband and father of two I find it extremely unjust to be treated as a pedophile by your company, we are investing a great deal of time and money into this venture and your company is seeking only to advertise for people not to visit our website and calling it illegal and claiming we are associated with child sex which is most certainly NOT the case.
| |
| − | | |
| − | You have provided no feedback from visiting our forum and as the forum will obviously change from a discussion based research as it is now to a more business oriented when the other domains are available this reference will be so far from the actual reference it would be like calling Microsoft.com a pro-pedophilia site, what response would you get from the administration if you locked their reference and would not allow for any editing and continued to slander them as child sex and pedophile related.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I think that they would not find the humor in these allegations either by your company, We have had a number of communications with your website requesting the removal and/or locking of the reference in question but have only resulted in the reference being locked and having false keywords associated with our website.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I have provided a factual reference for your page in the user page you provided but this has been ignored by your company. We are fast running out of peaceful options.

| |
| − | | |
| − | They are my words everyone is cross referencing and I have said that I have not posted anything that is illegal in my country. I cannot clarify the legalities of the content within another country apart from the country I have the servers located in and as such any discussion relating to the legalities would seem rather futile without the said material in fact being available for viewing would this not be a logical assumption to make. Now the user MB (Master Baitor) assures me in his opinion that in his country the content is illegal but has refused to provide any legal reference so that I may learn that countries legal codes ''(Any more than 2,000 pages of legal text from each country in the world I reserve the right not to read)'' as I am indeed researching and collating every countries laws in this area and the website is dedicated to this topic ''(particularly the Wiki)'' hence the site is more than legal and any person stating otherwise is making remarks that are false.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If everyone could please stop renewing the arguments about illegal content as it has been more than clearly stated that the website ArtSapience.com is in fact legal and contains no illegal material for the American legal system and other countries. This said it is rather annoying for all parties that the user MB continues to re-hash old arguments and adds comments that insinuate things taking place and therefore restarting the discussions in an agressive manner, He furthermore has knows the user DG for approx a year and in the past has openly expressed how much joy her receives out of firing him up and watching him respond, now this is not very social behavior and if this was indeed a work environment what sort of office would allow these activities to take place.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The user MB has shown already to unfairly alter other users text, harass users and threaten on and off-site including writing comments and sign them as other users then answer the false comments in order to start an argument and has admitted to illegal activates and to include this website would this not implicate this website with any proceedings at a later date as this website and its staff are now aware of the illegal activities of this user and yet allow his interaction on the very topic he is currently facing incarceration for again ''(As MB has already been to prison for Child Pornography charges and is a known sex offender this raises the criminal activities and that of any penalties)'', would this website then be aiding and/or be providing a means for these illegal activities to continue as he has been provided an outlet to advocate his activities?
| |
| − | | |
| − | Either way the discussions about the website should conclude as stated by the domain owner and an article was placed for all to read which clearly answer all concerned and it seems no reason to continue reopening th matter again to resolve back to what is now, all that will be gained is stress for all concerned.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I wish to help the community site AboutUs with some of the work I have been developing for my wiki site that will no doubt benefit this as the code is identical but all was resolved until this MB user arrived and now we have more stress to deal with resulting all from this one user. DG can be a valuable asset to any site but certain people can firing him up and the many miss out because of the few that should not be on this site like the user Master Baitor. He has breached enough policies already to warrant a ban but alas this is not my site and I can but only wait until you have had enough, Thank you Simon and I wish you patience either way you choose.

| |
| − | Simon,
| |
| − | | |
| − | You have locked m page to my domain discussions, I have requested this page to be locked to prevent edit wars, I have numerous times copy and pasted old versions of this page and create a new edit to replace the versions that was there before it has been attacked.(look through the history - Very annoying)
| |
| − | | |
| − | I have removed the comment as it clearly states I personally have said something that I have not said and this is libelous and extremely misleading among many other things, If you look at the history I have made active attempts to keep the page free from false information and edit wars, I have allowed without edit information that I personally do not agree with as that is another persons opinion but this is clearly not an opinion he is stating it is a lie and I have simply remove the comments so as not to create another edit war with this annoying user Master Baitor, You have locked my page with this false information I have removed dozens of times could you please remove from the table at the bottom of the page where it says the discussion conclusion and down as it has nothing to do with the actual website reference and is rather a person statement about myself which is false.''(I choose not to call it a personal attack)''

| − | Hi Simon, did you see the recent changes made to [[WhoWeAre|WhoWeAre document]]? Could you please have a look at Stage 1 for [[WhoWeAre]] and see if it works for you and set [[WhoWeAre:Stage1Status/Simon Koldyk|your status accordingly]]? Feel free to change the document if you think it can be improved. Let me know if you have any questions. Best, [[User:Obed Suhail|Obed Suhail]] 01:24, 3 September 2007 (PDT)

| − | I was wondering why you chose to remove that info off the site. They were still good links. Well I felt they were. Just asking.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Another question: I had some questions on there that were good points about the discussion and were not directed toward any site but all those in general which was the reason for discussion on [[Pedophile_Warning_Policy_Discussion]]. You removed them .. may I ask why? I also noticed you removed some of the attacks but left some others. Why choose some and not others? Call me a pain but I thought I would ask you why before I re-Add the comments back. I will wait for your reply because I am sure you had a good reason. --[[User:Master Baitor|Master Baitor]] 15:08, 3 September 2007 (PDT)

| − | == [[NewSkin]] Beta Preview ==
| |
| − | Hello Simon!
| |
| − | | |
| − | We've noticed your contributions and are glad to be on the AboutUs team with you! As an [[ActiveMember]] your energy and ideas determine our future direction. One way that [[ActiveMember]]s stay "in the loop" is to participate in the beta previews of large new changes to the site before they are generally released.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Today we're starting a limited beta preview of an earthy [[NewSkin]] intended to reflect the alive and growing AboutUs community. The [[NewSkin]] is designed to feel wholesome and connected with the real world. This choice was made to reassure the many folks who feel that the internet is a "scary place" where mean people hide behind fake identities and shout insults at each other. We hope that the [[NewSkin]] evokes our values in a way that helps visitors and members alike feel grounded in true community.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''We'd love your help putting the [[NewSkin]] through its paces!''' To give it a whirl you'll need to be logged in. Once you are logged in, go to "my preferences" | "skin" and select "design". Don't forget to then click the "save" button! You can always go back to the current skin by selecting "aboutus" via the same steps.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Your feedback on the new look for aboutus will help ensure that it has a maximally positive impact when we roll it out. Thanks for being a valuable member of the community, we look forward to your feedback on the [[NewSkin]] page!

I have warned him and [[JackJones]] and I have tried to revert it. He won't allow the edits done by Ted to stay.

| − | We already responded to this nonsense about a zillion times. The WikiPedia article (maintained by this same vandal, indeed) has been responded to over and over again, with *very* strong evidence about the fact that this Nathan's ''diploma mill'' is NOT concordia-college.net. He deleted same responses there over and over again.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The domain is 'net' (AND 'edu') for the simple reason that every new school starts unaccredited. Only at a later stage, when accreditation becomes a fact, a website can obtain a .edu domain or subdomain. We didn't make the rules.
| |
| − | | |
| − | :Nonsense. You're claiming to have been in existence since 1999, the [http://wikipedia.org/wiki/.edu .edu] rules weren't tightened until 2001. Furthermore, your .net wasn't even registered until [http://whois.domaintools.com/concordia-college.net after] the turn of the millennium; it did not exist in 1999. Oh, and why are you using some other school's .edu domain in some other country through a FreeDNS server again? --[[User:Carlb|Carlb]] 18:02, 10 September 2007 (PDT)
