Whither Bikini?

[McLovin]

I can't believe people were watching the bikini account to see who she was PM'ing.

I hope you're not implying the staff was 'watching the bikini account'. Before I did some random IP investigation yesterday, I never gave this user a second thought.

Am I the only one to not to exchange PM's with it? At least I don't think I did. Not like you guys are talking about anyway.

I didn't even rate a Friend request, never mind a PM.

Half the boards were completely going "wtf?" about the user, so why wouldn't they be keeping an eye on "her?"

Like I said, I took some of those bikini pictures to another forum to see if the horndogs over there recognized the pictures as any sort of model, adult or otherwise. They had to pull the pictures from somewhere.

Pfft, I didn't even get an IM from the "sheheit". I guess I should e-shower more often!

ps: I also can't believe you busted me for using b*tch as a synonym for complain, yet you let all the juicy jerk-off crap happen in the add-3-words thread ;-)

Number 1, you don't have to bring this up in every correspondence with me - PM, Rep, Quote - I get it. Emoticon or not, it's just odd that you can't let that go.

Number 2, we don't police every thread. We rely on our users to report the things we don't see. You're right, even though I skimmed through it yesterday, it didn't register with me that the three words thread is out of hand. I will close it and file infractions where necessary.

Speaking as a staff member at another site, my radar would have been up fairly early and I definitely would have been "watching" that account. But that's not a knock against you, it's actually quite rare that we get absolute weirdo stuff like that around here. It's pretty common over where I "work."

If people are following board rules, there is no concern. We rely on everyone to be able to protect themselves from these online predators.

Yeah...boy it'd be nice to moderate a place like this, that much is for sure. I can't trust the yahoos over there to protect themselves from jack crap.

Just wondering, the last time I had checked Bikini's profile it still had the red bikini and shoes. When did all that change and what is the story with the horrendous looking dude's photo there now? (I am almost afraid to ask).

That's one ugly mama jama!

I changed the profile picture, because I'm exceedingly immature while also full of vengeance. Ask IHeartMasn how that goes.

I haven't been monitoring the album pictures, but they are the same as the first time I saw them yesterday. Not sure what's changed over time...

Threads like this give men a bad name....my goodness.

Oh, thank goodness. Now at least I can keep my fantasy alive that Bikini was actually who she said she was and not a fake. I like to think she was the cute girl in the photo and just being nice to people (naive I know, but pleasant thought anyway).

Uh, I didn't even know of it's existence until my girlfriend pointed out the "man posing as a bikini model on the Hangout."

You know guys, in light of this bikiniarmstrong fiasco, I have a confession to make. I'm *actually* Hank Scorpio. It's not just a clever screen name, believe it or not. Right now, I have sugar in my pockets and I'm carrying an M-4 waiting for captives to attempt escape below so I can riddle them with bullets.

Hey, look at my feet. You like those moccasins? Look in your closet; there's a pair for you. Don't like them? Then neither do I! Get the hell outta here!

Ever see a guy say good-bye to a shoe?

It would be so interesting and funny to count emails by user to BA. I promise I won't though...

I did do some high level analysis though, and determined that on some days, BA accounted for about 90% of our PM traffic. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just interesting...
