Except he didn't copy and paste the information such as he did for Insimenator, but rather related it - you can tell clearly by the font.  There's no rule about never talking about it, nor could there ever be.
Well i don't know what else to say so here you go:  Roll Eyes
I think i'm done here.

Yes - that's what I did yesterday. They don't allow dissemination for any purpose.  That's what I quoted to you yesterday.  Godaddy is different - so take this:  Tongue as me poking my tongue out at you.
Great, now where did drborken get the contact name for thesimsresource.com from? Let me save you some time, yes it was Verisign.

This proves to me, without a shadow of a doubt, that you've never even glanced at the TSR posts coconut made. You would've known. My bet is you heard about all of this on the TSR forums, or a forum that supports that cultish way of thinking, and came here to tell us nasty thieves what's what.

That or you're a complete idiot.

So how are you going to have it? Misguided sheep or asshole troll?
I don't call people here idiots or worse even if they deserve it.
You don't really understand or you don't want to understand what i mean.
I _know_ she blurred the data.
With this extra little information go back and read again, i will not repeat myself anymore.

[... keeps going on about terms of use etc ...]

Moreover, drborken didn't actually print a private person's name, phone number or anything else, nor did they threaten to ring them.
Quote from: drborken
im also seeing that the domain for TSR is owned by a Johan Isacsson, which is interesting, as ive been told by someone else that its meant to be owned by a steve something?

Did you also check the TOU of Verisign's whois database (thesimsresource.com)?

Why are we even discussing this?
5  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 09, 22:46:07
What the... No. Just no. We all looked at those links and didn't see anything like it. People said as much. And nice job ignoring any and all posts that may have been a challenge to explain away. Ignoring everyone and stomping your foot because nobody listens to you is a tactic usually reserved for 3 year olds. For fuck's sake, can't you tell what a miserable little shit you're being? Don't complain we're ignoring your points while you skirt around any and all issues that arise with them.

Here's a hint: if about two dozen people agree on something and in the end you're left with a soapbox and a nasty temper, it may be time to concider you're just plain wrong.
Then look again. That was information taken from Whois. That was the point. Some people (including you) didn't get it.
6  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 09, 22:43:31
There we go then. No more "But it was in private!". That was Thomas' defence as well and as has been pointed out, it's bullshit. Bringing the info to you once again, because you can't be arsed to seek it out yourself:



1. Thomas lies about what is shared.
2. He admits that real names were shared in a post where he hopes to prove his snow white innocence.
3. He uses the "private" defense, which I hope we have established is bull.
4. He accuses people of theft, which is also untrue.

The reason I'm throwing this screenshot out here (because it hasn't got to do with what happened in that new thread) is because I want you to see that you are defending untrustworthy people. That Thomas lies and pulls the wool over your eyes. Frankly, that you've been indoctrinated and lied to by someone who has no problems creating his own version of reality. You wanted to educate us? Then man up and be prepared to be educated yourself. You've been doing some flip-flopping. That's good. Now go all the way and admit you are wrong in defending these people.
1. Does he really? Did he know that the information that he got from the FA's might be from their PayPal account(s)?
2. Isn't that good, that he admits to it?
3. You have. I have a different view on it.
4. You think you don't steal. You call it sharing or something like that. TSR sells subscriptions and see nothing wrong with that, you call them criminals. Different point of view?

Flip-flopping, where?
7  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 09, 22:35:30
Smart things have been said about this. In fact, I don't have anything to add except maybe one thing. That same thread? Go back to the very first page. See that post from Paden, with the letter? That used to have his full name, address and phone number attached. Now look at the replies to it, one of the first. Oh no, wait, you like to be spoonfed:

Quote
Although, you may want to snip out his address in your post Paden.

Good job defeating your own argument. Apparently us damn dirty pirates won't even post personal information if the person whom it belongs to does it himself.
I explained why i posted this link in a previous post. I wouldn't have cared if the address were still there even on a public forum like this. The Whois information IS public information.

Repeating what more eloquent people have said here, but can we please drop your "it was private" argument you keep insisting on? It has already been pointed out that it wasn't private and they had excellent reason to believe it wasn't. It's not like they're not aware of coconut and what he/she does. It's not like this came out of nowhere, hence our suspicion that this was leaked on purpose and that you are trying to rile us up and drag us to the dark side.

But for argument's sake, let's assume they thought his was actually private, that nobody would ever get to see this. Does that make it less of a crime? In my country, planning a crime is just as illegal as commiting one (and harassment is a crime) and I can't imagine that's very different elsewhere. If police officers were to stumble upon a group of criminals planning to hold up a bank, do you think they'd back away and leave them to it just because they were discussing it in private and hadn't actually done it yet?

Doing bad things behind everyone's back doesn't make them harmless. If fact, you could argue that if someone chooses to do or say something in a place where they assume nobody will ever hear or see, they know they're doing something wrong. The fact that they thought it was private makes it worse, not better.
I think i have explained enough times my view on what a private forum is, with or without coconuts.

TSR holds creations hostage. I don't want my stuff associated with that place any more.  DIRECTLY due to the personal information sharing.  Thomas told me to forget it.

That got me to thinking, so I went over to TSR and did some poking.  When you sign up for an account, they ask for some pretty personal information.   Stuff that no one would put without some assurance.  They give you an assurance too:

Quote
requested information. Please note, however, that none of the information will be transfered to other parties than TSR. The purpose of TSR having the address information is to be able to send prizes from our many upcoming competitions.

(Bolding was added by me)

TSR can't even follow their own rules.  No, I don't consider their FA's to be "TSR."  They could be considered employees of TSR, but that's different.  And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see it saying, "To be able to send prizes and post in our FA forum, if we suspect you of being a pirate." 
So are FA's only considered TSR if they post PayPal information?

Were you born this stupid, or did you have to take special lessons?  Or, have you never checked out Coconut's journal?  Coconut blanked out the parts with the information.  If coconut hadn't done that, we'd be yelling at her.  She blurred it.   She did NOT share personal information. What she has done was shown us proof that TSR was sharing personal information. 
So how are you going to have it, does coconut go public with sensitive information or not?
No but she could?
Well if she does then that's on her, IMHO.

That statement is so full of fail I hardly know where to begin. First of all, there are quite a few FA's, and as former FA's have told us, they aren't all close personal friends.  And, even if they are, what's wrong is wrong.  If I share personal information about someone with my friends, that doesn't make it right.
Stop making me have to repeat myself, people here don't like that.
I'm not saying it was right to post those names, OK? I have never said that.

And wrong is wrong.  I don't care who you're with.  If I say, "God, that person pissed me off,  stealing my meshes, I'd like to smack her upside the head" with my friends, that's one thing.  If they are close friends, they will know that the threat is empty.  On the other hand, if I say, "That person stole my meshes and here is her address and phone number, we're not going to let her get away with it," that's quite another.    And you know what?  I know my friends well enough and trust them enough that were I to do such a thing, they would say, "Okay Darqstar, you crossed the line.  I understand you being upset, but what you're asking is just wrong." 
How do you know someone didn't say that? How do you know coconut would show it if someone did?
And i think you're blowing it up just a little bit.

To everyone that didn't get it:
The links i posted were to show that whois information were being "illegally" (that's the word right calalily?) used here to.
Did you think much of it?
No? Exactly, it's a silly argument.
10  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 08, 23:24:49
Some of this is already addressed in my previous reply and we don't seem to like monkeys repeating things here so i'll skip those.
I will admit that the phone call crack on the jassims.com thread could be interpreted as a joke.  The stuff about banning was not.  The stuff in the paypal thread was not, except for some really bad renditions of Another one bites the dust.
I can't sit here pretending to know exactly what they really meant or not meant. Surely bad things have been said, stupid ideas have been discussed.
But if you take it out of context and you don't know the people it's not so obvious what they really mean, if they were serious or not.

"New Whois Discovery" , this is beyond silly and the fact i'm the one having to tell you that says a lot about the mentality here.  Roll Eyes
Someone here posted a real name found with whois (searched on thesimsresource.com) in the insim thread not so long ago, wouldn't that also be illegal?

why is it silly? Because BG got caught doing something wrong and you don't like it?

Linky please.

Why silly? Let's take a couple of steps back and get some perspective.
Can you imagine any place other than here where someone would call it a crime to copypaste the result of a whois lookup and be serious about it?
Here's the link:
http://phorum.mustnotbenamed.com/index.php/topic,2228.msg125423.html#msg125423

Here we have some more copypasted whois data by the way, right here on your own backyard Wink

11  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 08, 22:47:17
Nope. TSR. They kept writing long after it all came out.
We clearly have different opinions on who's responsible for sharing the information. Agree to disagree?


Sasilia shared the information on TSR, and is an FA dipshit - and since TSR isn't actually a person, but an entity, then yes, TSR. I was never fuzzy - I have all the information and you have ponied up nothing but supposition and bullshit.
See when i read "TSR is sharing your PayPal information" i thought you meant they were sharing their own members information, obtained from their own paypal account.
Is that just me then? Anyway, that was what i objected to. If you don't mean that then i will drop this, i will even let you set the final score Smiley


Yeah i'm saying it's out of context even if it's the full post. Things posted in private among friends is a whole other context than the coconut blog no matter how you twist it.
In private among friends you can say things without being serious and your friends would know that.

They're not among friends - they're at work among fellow employees.
Call it whatever you want, my point still stands.


"New Whois Discovery" , this is beyond silly and the fact i'm the one having to tell you that says a lot about the mentality here.  Roll Eyes

Darqstar owes me $10. It's quite obvious you will never see illegality as illegality. Your argument is fail if you refuse to acknowledge they ever did anything wrong.
So you're seriously calling that a crime now? Go ahead Smiley
12  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 08, 22:23:05
You can release someone's entire name and address without being "serious"? Ookay. What's the weather like on your planet?

Also, I'm getting the impression that you think we should trust all the FAs with our information. Why would we want to do this?

I think you don't know the meaning of the word "evidence". Further, you are confusing assertion with argument. I recommend you read these lessons carefully: http://skepdic.com/refuge/ctlessons.html
I wasn't referring to the name sharing and i'm not saying it was right to share those names.
13  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 08, 21:04:31
* They knew that forum was being published online - so they did not care about whether it was public or not - they are confident in sheeple loyalty - more fool them. You're also making the assumption that jassims would consent to have information of hers copypasta'd all over the web.
* FA from TSR is good enough for me - and the fact that they did not delete it. Since you haven't read it, you are truly talking out of your arse.
* Did it ever occur to you that rarely is anyone truly unbiased, particularly those liable to debate it - if you think we're going to look to you as an unbiased messiah, think again TSRbot.

Out of context? How is suggesting calling a person who sells your mesh reasonable - put that harassment in any context you like. Then put it in the context of the entire post, which was in fact screenshotted, and therefore *is in context*. You can crap on about out of context when it's one line - but in the context of previous information sharing going on, with paypal information disclosure threats, and them actually publishing information unnecessarily, over and over, BlackGarden and ulkrhsn are deeply, deeply stupid.

And if you think I'm going to get into details with you about what I think about coconut, you're sadly mistaken. What I know, what I think, you are the very last person that I would discuss this with. You're clearly looking for a way to hurt them, and they have done nothing but help our cause and make fewer subscribers. Seeing as TSR outright lies, often and all the time - why exactly is it a bad thing that there is one dissenter? Answer is, it's not. 

And in fact, BlackGarden (what a surprise) has broken the terms of whois:

Quote
The compilation, repackaging, dissemination or other use of this data is expressly prohibited without prior written consent from us. The Registrar of record is Directi Internet Solutions Pvt. Ltd. d/b/a PublicDomainRegistry.com. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. By submitting this query, you agree to abide by these terms.

So in context, again - she's not only breaking social mores of the sims community, but also the terms of use for whois. By disseminating that information, she has actually broke the rules of that site. But we already know she completely ignores terms and legal contracts unless they're in her interest. Bugger the actual law - BlackGarden does what she likes.
* We're not getting anywhere with this are we? If coconut decides to forward the information to the public then coconut is responsible for that.
* I see, you're not so fuzzy with the details when they get in the way of the cause. You might not care but this little detail is pretty significant for how you should interpret "TSR shares your PayPal information".
* It has and this was the reason i brought it up, why should i believe in what a clearly biased person says if there is no evidence for it?

Yeah i'm saying it's out of context even if it's the full post. Things posted in private among friends is a whole other context than the coconut blog no matter how you twist it.
In private among friends you can say things without being serious and your friends would know that.

Someone here posted a real name found with whois (searched on thesimsresource.com) in the insim thread not so long ago, wouldn't that also be illegal?

Oh and Palemato:
Thanks for reaching out, i appreciate the gesture and i believe you're a genuinely nice person. I don't need to be rescued though.
14  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 08, 12:41:40
* It's logical - private means private, the opposite of public.  They now know their forum is public, yet they choose to continue being info sharing dicks.
* You know it's not about TSR? It's about TSR - Sasilia and her sharing of Paypal information at TSR, so score is not reset.  I have authoritative information, and you do not.
* Because you're not going to see any private information - ever, and coconut owes you nothing - particularly as everything they would say would be countered by you. I mean they showed TSR publishing private information, with names, addresses and emails, long after they were any use, and you said "well it happened long ago - a whole five months - it's over now". So nothing would be good enough for you - why bother.

For the record, defamation has to be untrue. With all the screenshots about it, this is why TSR isn't screaming about defamation.  And that's why BlackGarden and ulkrhsn will not be able to talk about being defamed - they were in fact, revealed.

* You're making the assumption that they intend to have the information made public yet you make it sound like a fact.
* That information did not come from TSR now did it?
* Did it ever occur to you that coconut's interpretation on what's really going on might be a little biased?

It's pretty easy to take something out of context, adding a suitable comment and make it look far worse or give it
a whole different meaning than it had in the original context.
Have you ever said something in private within a group of friends that would look pretty bad taken out of that context?
Do you think we're getting the whole picture from coconut or could coconut just be showing us stuff that suits the agenda?
15  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Re: TSR Sharing your infomation! on: 2008 December 07, 23:32:45
* It is open to everyone - that's how I read it. Not private. Sharkbait is in fact more private. You have no evidence of sneaking involved - coconut could be anyone.
* So you still have no evidence, and I'm one up on you - the apology from the paysite owner who threatened, and did it (and who subsequently quit not realising she'd catch such hell for her actions).  Read this thread Calalily - 1, Macaque - 0 Who has more evidence.....let me think.
* You surely don't sound like someone in coconut's inner circle, and seeing as I get private messages and private viewings not publically released, then I'd say I'm pretty sure.

You know, in the end it's not HOW one got the private information that has us so riled. It's the fact that the information was posted in the FA forum with the intent to harass and defame the real identity of this girl.

Yeah, but it's not macaque being harassed, so why should macaque care. Isn't that right macaque?  Roll Eyes

* Monkey fails to see the logic now.
* I'd read that forum post if it wouldn't require a login. But it's not about TSR is it? Do you have evidence TSR is sharing PayPal information obtained from their own PayPal account? Otherwise i'd like to remove your point and set it back to 0-0.
* So why haven't we seen it yet?

For the record, harassing someone is wrong regardless of who it is and what it is for.
I'm sure you have never talked about anything else than long healthy lives for the folks at TSR and other paysites here, right?
Defamation, that is totally not what Coconut is trying to accomplish with the Atwa-Thomas saga, right?
