Subject: My Apologies

Written By: DJ Midas on 01/29/03 at 07:17 a.m.

For those of you who frequent the Games Board, apparently a picture I posted to the "words" thread yesterday got replaced with a link to a picture of inappropriate material.  I want to assure everybody that I would never purposely post such a pic.  My apologies to all who viewed.

DJM :

Whilst I didn't see said pic, I have seen enough of you on the board to know you would not do that.

Not a problem  :)

FB  ;)

LOL.  I wouldn't expect that...

I want to thank Hairspray for being a most excellent moderator and those who may have notified 'Spray of the indecency.

I second what Fuss said. I saw the pic and while I don't know you real well, I know you well enough to know that it (the disgusting pic) just a'int you're style. ;) Don't worry about it.

I was one of the many offended by the pic.  I remember when AngeliK. used a picture in her avatar that changed to something obscene, she never used that username again and came back as Kay.. (that's supposed to be Kay. with a period at the end of Kay).  I will never knowingly post pictures of obscene material, though I have been known to post pictures of scantily-clad women on this board…

I didn't see it, DJM, but I heard about it. I'm glad I missed it!!  ;D

However, I know you wouldn't link to something like that on purpose. Didn't Kay or someone get burned like that a while back?

I was one of the unfortunate few that was startled by that pic.  The 1st thing I thought was "DJ Midas wouldn't do that!"  I PM'ed with another and was explained that it was probably what you described.  I've learned a lesson.  


Edited for making me sick, Race. We're tyring to forget that ghastly image, for crying out loud. http://www.click-smilie.de/sammlung/wuerg/wuerg002.gif

I didn't see the picture you're talking about, but something like this happened on another messageboard I belong to just this past October.  One of our regular posters posted a picture of what she thought was 3 guys sitting on a couch dressed up in Halloween getups but what posted was a very, very, very closeup of somebody's "Mr. Winky".  So while half on the messageboard were seeing 3 guys on the couch, the rest of us were seeing Mr. Winky and trying to figure out if we were seeing what we thought we were seeing.  And we were posting all these remarks on the board that wasn't making any sense to the rest.  It was one of the funniest things that I had ever seen happen...not the picture itself, but the reactions to the picture.   :D

a lot of websites have begun using something call mod_access, which prevents linking of pictures from other sites.. which is why stuff like this happens.. I prevent people from using my pictures on other sites, but I just put blank images.. some people use obscene pictures to get their point across..

Didn't see the pic, but probably wouldn't have been offended.  As long as it wasn't a pic of me, no harm, no foul!

Trust me on this one, you would have been offended. Anyone would have. Thanks to the moderator for being cool, and thank god it was a glitch. Though I don't know DJ, I frequent this board for the high rate of all around cool people here. Just the thought of a person posting that on purpose was freaky. (startled? the bejesus outta me!!) Cool DJ, sorry if I kinda snapped. It was too freaky.
