In addition to that i wonder what newbies to our own little group think.

Smokie Darling (Annie) - 19 Dec 2004 00:14 GMT RoseB and Dianne,
I'm not so much of a newbie anymore, but... All it takes is for someone to check out the alt.support.chronic-pain group to realize that this group (and I believe the others in the crossposted garbage) is not like that.
I would wonder how much it would cost to get a lawyer to get court orders for ISPs to identify who the *poster* is. Apparently, there are people who can completely hide their real ISP as well (I don't know about that stuff, not that smart).
I guess as long as those that know Rosie (better than I) know that this stuff is crap... I believed it was crap because I started in the dash group (alt.support.chronic-pain), as opposed to the dot group (alt.support.chronic.pain) so I saw what it was like in there. Definitely not for the weak.
Not sure they would take it to real life, but I'm pretty certain that were that to happen, Rosie would be alright (I can hope so). Smokie Darling (Annie)
shenmei9@aol.com - 19 Dec 2004 01:10 GMT Annie, It doesn't even take a court order, just the right technology. I'm working with cyber guardian angels on a bizarre thing right now and I have been amazed to learn that you can find the identity of anyone. Wasn't the case a few years ago, but it so is now, it is rather daunting.
I am not actually getting these posts thanks to AOL and preferences and just picked this up as I needed to do a Google search for a recipie. I do worry about newbies feeling intimidated but maybe we just need to post a little thing once a week or so-I'll write something up and we can try a trial run. We have had worse than this poor loser and killfiling, blocking, etc. will actually get him gone eventually. And if not, well who cares? sort of a tree-forest-no one around-thing
Which actually is rather amusing in and of itself-what hapenes to the angry obscene phone caller when no one answers the phone? Is a "person trying to disrupt the newsgroup" (not troll, as I promised my WILPH friends not to use the word <G>) really there if we don't see them post?
Ah well, I think I sense some amusing possibilities
Meanwhile, I do continue prayers Ro**ie two's healing
And no, you are not a newbie anymore girl...Have I told you lately how glad I am you joined this posse?
Rosemarie Shiver - 20 Dec 2004 19:45 GMT >I guess as long as those that know Rosie (better than I) know that this >stuff is crap... Are you playing both sides of the street, Annie? This is what you posted in asc-p. Does it bother you to have your condemnation of Rosie posted in her other groups? It shouldn't, because you did the right thing. What are you doing now?

You don't know me, we have rarely spoken as I'm somewhat new in most groups. Please, you have to see what you are doing is not hurting anyone but you. It's beginning to make you look almost crazy.
You've got this vendetta that I don't understand. Once, several months ago, I tried to look up all the pertinent information so I could understand what you are doing, and why you feel it necessary to bring up something that is at least 5 years old. Never could figure it out, maybe because it went further back than I did, maybe because some of the people use "X-no archive: Yes"... I don't know, and anymore I don't care.
You have people on your side, who will, shall we say, debate anyone who disagrees with you. I won't debate, both sides are wrong. I have seen, Rosie, where you are caring and generous (in other groups), and this persona is so different from the "real Rosie"... Makes me wonder which Rosie is real. The one in the arthritis group, or the one here?
I see where you say that you are upset by what some of the people here have posted about you, that you have lurked here since the last outburst. If you know they are going to write things that you find hateful, why did you lurk here? Keep in mind Rosie that those who know you, in other groups, are saying you are nothing like this harpie, so those that matter to you (the ones you have something emotionally invested in) are not listening to the stuff coming from the "other Rosie".
You aren't helping any newbies with this. People leave because they can't deal with what's going on, not that they feel threatened, it's just too much ... else ... to try and live with. I left for a time, and hadn't even been "attacked" by anyone, it was because I didn't want to read the crazy posts. I came back, maybe they will come back when things have settled, as long as this pot is being stirred, nothing will be settled.
You feel like you have to defend everyone that doesn't know who the "Other Side" (put in the names of your group for the Other Side) are. The "other" side feels like they need to defend people against you and your friends. If one side stops (with a very notable exception who can't seem to leave one of the men here alone) why can't the other side.
Most of us have nothing to say about the arguments that go on here, because it's pretty difficult to "Google up" the whole story (the Rosie story), we don't know when it started, we don't care when it started. I try to avoid the threads that are obviously nasty, but after a while, when the entire first page seems to be nothing but arguing and bickering, well it's as if both sides are keeping any real information from being shared.
Can you stop, please? If they stop, will you stop? This isn't about "someone else" anymore, Rosie. It's about you and "them". You aren't even pretending to protect someone now, you are just posting vileness and hatefulness (and "they" are responding in kind). Both sides are wrong now. Please, can you just stop?
Smokie Darling (Annie)--I apologize for the length of the "missive", but enough is enough, please?

But whatever this is sure takes allot of energy that could be used better elsewhere
firechief - 21 Dec 2004 02:12 GMT > It's not libel if it's true. And it is true. False in many jurisdictions. But trolls are know for their lies.
Libel is a malicious defamation, expressed either by writing, printing, or by signs or pictures, or the like, tending to blacken the memory of one who is dead, or to impeach the honesty, integrity, virtue, or reputation, or publish the natural or alleged defects of one who is alive, and thereby to expose him to public hatred, contempt, or ridicule.
And since it was "published" in my jurisdiction via the newsgroups, the writer could be prosecuted in this jurisdiciton although he/she/it resides somewhere else.
Rosemarie Shiver - 21 Dec 2004 18:43 GMT >> It's not libel if it's true. And it is true. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >writer could be prosecuted in this jurisdiciton although he/she/it resides >somewhere else. As a general rule truth IS an absolute defense against a charge of libel, but as you say there are some exceptions, in some jurisdictions. However the publishing of information contained in public records is in all cases exempt.
Libel is not a criminal offense. If one feels they have been injured by untrue statements the only remedy is in the civil courts. Your reference to *prosecution* is wrong.
There have to be real and provable damages. It's not enough to say that one was injured by the statements of another. You have to prove monetary damages. Damages to one's reputation among their friends in a newsgroup doesn't count.
It's very expensive to pursue such a lawsuit and even if one wins the awards are almost always inconsequential and don't justify the expense involved.
If Rosie wants to hire a lawyer in your area to file a lawsuit against me I would welcome it. But she is not going to do that where you live and she's not going to do that where she lives. Rosie is not going to do anything but deny she has a criminal record and rely on the ignorance of a.sholes like you.
Go ahead and Google up some more legal advice firechief. You have been wrong about so many things, because you blinded by your hatred of me for intruding on your domain. I'm glad my presence here bothers you so much.
Pissing on firechief again Hugs from Rosie#2
firechief - 21 Dec 2004 21:27 GMT > Libel is not a criminal offense. Wrong again, a.shole.
That quote was from the PENAL CODE (criminal laws) of a state. It has nothing to do with CIVIL damages.
Rosemarie Shiver - 22 Dec 2004 03:48 GMT >> Libel is not a criminal offense. > > Wrong again, a.shole. > > That quote was from the PENAL CODE (criminal laws) > of a state. It has nothing to do with CIVIL damages. OK, fine. It's true that there are laws on the books in some states making certain forms of libel a criminal offense. But they are almost never enforced unless the libel is against a public official and that is extremely rare. There is no way you or anyone else can get the police or any other law enforcement agency or any prosecutor in any state to come after me. So either get it done or stop making empty threats.
Or you can go dig up some example of the criminal libel laws of one state being used in a usenet dispute between two private individuals living in two other states. If you find one I'll be real impressed, because I don't think it's ever happened, but it still won't stop me.

Ned - 22 Dec 2004 01:09 GMT What disturbs me about this poster, Is that s/he is very vocal about how not scared he is from legal actions, but uses an alias so as not to let anyone know who they are. anonymous postings are not to be taken with a grain of salt.
If you are correct about what you state, then you should not hide behind aliases. Stand up and stand behind your convictions

Stand up and stand behind your convictions And if they posted with their real name would that make any difference? You still wouldn't have an address, or do you want them to draw you a map to their house as well?
Most people in this medium take some precautions to protect their privacy. Anyone who doesn't is taking unnecessary risks.
You can find out anyone's identity. All it takes is a court order. If someone is breaking the law then it's easy to get one. If you can't get a court order then you don't need to know their identity.

Charlie - 23 Dec 2004 03:30 GMT People who post to a "public" internet forum often forget that their posts are potentially available to millions of people -- essentially anyone who is able to obtain an email account. You pretty much give tacit approval for anyone with internet access to flame you -- and flame they may if you bring such always controversial topics as religion or politics into a public forum. You may also find yourself the subject of a flame if you openly attack someone in a public forum when it is particularly none of your business. There are 'member only' groups that anyone can form with password access if a group of people wants total privacy without any flaming or personal attacks. If you don't like a post from someone, simply pull their password. Posting on a public forum leaves you vulnerable whether you like it or not; whining about it isn't going to make it go away.

I guess she would need to fight it in court. I have most of this stuff blocked so I never see it unless a new thread starts or sometimes someone will copy it in a response. I saw some of the early stuff and it was so confused, and garbled with old posting feuds we have never been involved in so I just trashed it all. Most of the alt chronic pain people are kill filed. -- MZ

>Forte Internet Services Inc. Terms of Subscription >http://www.forteinc.com/apn/terms.php I appreciate that you put a lot of work into this, Alex, but unfortunately these links won't help in tracking the person who is stalking Rosie; they lead to Forte, Incorporated, the company that makes the Agent newsreader. By default Agent displays "4ax" in its message ID (it can be set to display the poster's true service provide or other information); the "4ax" is an inside reference to the daughter of one of Forte's founding partners, and the domain is not used in any way for services.
Actually the links seem a little out of date; the company started as Forte, Inc., but was bought quite a while ago by two outside companies in succession. A few years ago the founders of Forte bought back their original company, and used the Dazler name (Dazler is a personal name associated with one of the founders); the company name has now reverted to the original Forte, Inc. Much of the design, programming, sales, and support work is done by telecommuting, part at the North Carolina address and the rest, along with administrative matters, at the California address.
Forte's internet service (Agent Premium News) is simply a provider (actually, a reseller) of news and is not a service provider. Subscribers to APN have to access it through their own service providers.
This particular git is somewhere in the Pacific time zone, if he hasn't spoofed that part of his headers. Other attacks on Rosie have originated at supernews.com and alt.net (and maybe telus.com), and have been propagated through google.com. I don't know if it's all one person or several, but they're not all stamped from the same time zone.
Sorry this is so long, but I wanted to be sure our asa family is aware of the facts.

ROFL I really enjoy keeping you and the other Netkop wannabees busy, but you could save yourself a lot of effort if you just accept the fact that the only thing you can do that will stop me and the other trolls is to ask Rosie Shiver to stop posting her trash in alt.support.chronic-pain. Rosie is just being stubborn. She has no business there and nobody wants her there.
If you're not willing to help out then don't expect this to end, no matter how many whiney emails you write to alt.net and the other service providers.
