23. Fuck them. We have to spend our time exposing the murderers in the WH.
Pay them NO ATTENTION. Let them die.

Let's focus on destroying the criminal assholes in charge of this country.

29. Look, I understand what your are saying
but it is not your reputation being ruined. People made this SAME argument about Bev when I protested her actions. They told me to let it go, since what Bev was doing was MUCH MORE important than my reputation. I should just "shut up and take one for the team".

If you were the target of these people, you might see things differently.

56. That's true...
but as a casual observer (and donor) of this whole thing, I wouldn't even know that website existed if you didn't post on its existance over here.

They're getting more viewers by making it known that they exist.

60. Sure. But in this case, it serves a purpose. It's not like
most of their viewers will buy something there or join.

They're doing our work for us, showing themselves as they are.

There's also lesson here about how to defend yourself from this sort of harrassment, defamation and stalking.

63. But see, there is a problem with that logic.
If folks are claiming that they are being defamed, they limit their cause of action, they limit their damages, when they themselves continue to publicize the defamation, when they themselves share and publicize the link to the site that contains the lies and the hate.

I have a right to make these comments as I am one of the ones that the evil ones like to ridicule at these sites, I have had to put up with their trash too.

IMHO, there are better ways to deal with these folks than by giving them the public attention they need to survive. They come here for our comments, our judgments and our disagreements. They use are statements and twist them to create their facts. Communicating with each other through pmails and emails is a much better way than sharing their websites in a public forum and further making public their attempts to malign and defame us. I believe in not letting my opponent know what it is I am doing to oppose his actions. Call me crazy, but it always seems like a better way to handle things. :shrug:

Guess I just had to get my 2 cents in, glad that site is down for now.

I won't even go to that website, as I'm sure it's primarily one nut who has an axe to grind with either Andy personally or liberals in general.

5. Just How Evil Does A Person Have To Be To Do This?
I have to ask myself how far am I willing to take my dislike of someone or something and I know I could not take it to the point that this person has. To spend as much time and money to do an evil thing makes that person a sad sick lonely indidvidual with too much time on their hands and not enough loving... Get a girlfriend or something, you will find this kind of crap is child-like compared to getting laid.....

32. I'm not sure if the page has changed but it looks
like they are gearing up to disrupt all sorts of fundraising efforts now. Was their disruption of Andy's surgery a testing ground for something else?

There were links to stories about hilary clinton and fund raising as well as other fundraising type stuff as well.

Edited on Mon Jun-06-05 06:59 PM by doublethink
continue with the investagation on who's credit card fraudulently deframed you in the first place that put this site up. Look into pro-bono Lawyers on DU and pursue it. Whomever is responsible needs to be brought out in the open and grow up, sometimes legal action is the only way to stop shit like this. Peace. :)

They're defaming everyone involved, but they didn't stop the fundraising. They lost, will continue to lose. Evil always does in the end.

Feeling stronger every day

I do believe in you
And I know you believe in me
Oh yeah

Love's not all that it's supposed to be
Oh yeah

I do believe I'm feelin' stronger every day


I know we really tried
Together we had love inside
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
So now the time has come
For both of us to live on the run
Oh yeah
Oh yeah


And knowing that you would have wanted it this way
I do believe I'm feelin' stronger every day
Yeah, yeah, yeah


After what you've meant to me
Ooh baby now
I can make it easily
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I know that we both agree
Best thing to happen to you
The best thing that happened to me
Yeah, yeah, yeah


Feelin' stronger every day
Feelin' stronger every day
Feelin' stronger every day
(You know I'm alright now)
Feelin' stronger every day
(You know I'm alright now)
Feelin' stronger every day
(You know I'm alright now)
Feelin' stronger every day
(You know I'm alright now)
Feelin stronger every day

35. I'm a little confused.......
I haven't really followed this whole thing in detail like many people here so I am not aware of many of the deatiled points. Basically my question is weren't all the doubts about Mr. Stephenson put to rest? The admins at DU have all the docs related to any operation he had correct? and the bill?

Scamdy.com was put up after all the proof was presented?

I don't mean to stir anything up if it was a painful episode, I try to stay away from contoversy. I simply ask because I just ran across the site a day or two ago (scamdy.com) from another post on DU and I thought this whole thing was over.

not to find the site funny as hell.

You've got one of the primary "investigators" who still can't seem to grok that there can somehow be two people named David Allen, someone with the word "teacher" in his/her handle who can't differentiate between "your" and "you're", and a fascinating thread in which members of that site and the other primary Andy-obsessed site are eating each other alive...

being slandered and libeled, no I don't find this funny at all. It's mean and hurtful and just plain evil.

Andy's a very strong person as are many of us involved with helping him, but there are limits on what a person can take. And no one should HAVE to take this kind of crap -- EVER -- from anyone.

44. Hey there! How are you feeling?
You're not trying to do too much, I hope.

Laughing is a definite no-no. Hopefully you'll feel well enough to celebrate once they get shut down and fined/locked up/etc. once and for all.

74. It'll get better, and then you can laugh your ass off
Shortly after my dad's Whipple, he moved in with my SO and me - took him a little time to shake the physical discomfort, but he did. I think the biggest hardship most frustrating thing for him during his recovery, was changing his eating habits... especially since my fried chicken, porkchops and Old South-style home cooking is a family legend.

Were they not so STUPID;

There are offshore registrars that are 100% anonymous.

And servers in Russia that don't care what trash you serve. Where do you think all the kiddieporn is served from?

But I'm glad they are stupid, because now we can know who they are.

46. Enough emails to the abuse@aplus.net will get it taken down.
Make sure to note that their AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) paragraph 7.2 specifically prohibits defamation websites.

He'll get another ISP, but we can complain there as well. Eventually, he'll give up.

I called the ISP a couple of days ago, and couldn't get anyone from their abuse department on the phone. Though that shouldn't stop anyone else from doing so; it wouldn't hurt for them to get phone calls in addition to the emails.

in fact I didn't know about that, but am not surprised to hear that the wanker behind that site would do that. He's obviously not only a punk, but a coward as well.

But even if the guy uses real info when he finds a new ISP, we can get it taken down because 99.99% of ISPs have an AUP that prohibit this kind of crap. They have reputations to maintain, and are not about to let themselves be associated with that kind of site.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/user-posts?id=123185

FINAL
DUMMIE ALERT!



FINISHING TOUCHES NOW DONE ON THE 'ANDY INFORMATION CENTER'!



WWW.SCAMDY.COM!



ALL READY TO GO!



PEACE AND STABILITY TO RETURN TO FREE REPUBLIC AND THE DUMMIE FUNNIES!

Okay, I am sure that Free Republic and P-J Comix are breathing a sigh of relief, just as the fine folks over in the other conservative web-site did earlier this week, as the fight to make America a safer and more decent society moves on to another arena, different terrain. All of these folks have been rather, uh, indulgent, and we in this war against fraud appreciate that indulgence, because we did cause some, uh, problems, tearing up their turf. Again, our heartfelt gratitude, and I am looking forward to resuming the "Norway ping list" here this coming Monday.


As this is the final DUMMIE ALERT!, I wish to remind others why this is important; why everybody has a dog in this fight.
Fraud in our society weakens us all, corrodes us all, as the child-like, the imbeciles, the incompetents, the ignorant, and the DUmmies are manipulated and cheated by those who offer friendship or ideological solidarity, but whose real motive is simply to cheat those simpler than they.

In many ways, the war against fraud and deceit is just as important as the war against terror, the war against poverty, the war against ignorance, so as to ensure we remain a decent, civilized society. A confidence-man is just as much a threat to the Republic, as is an armed terrorist, taxation policies that discourage wealth-building, or the militant malcontent misinforming.

It is perhaps superfluous to mention that the war against fraud and deceit also involves a fight against blatant hypocrisy; a struggle against those who wish to make the rules for the rest of us to follow, while they feel free to go out and do whatever they want to do, following no rules at all.

The war against fraud and deceit is something in which all honest Americans of all ideological stripes should engage, and our thanks go out to all those, including many from the other side of the political aisle, who have put so much time and strength into this particular war.

Deo succore est.

Andy and Termite and I are gearing up to map up the next step, and the donations for this effort have been very steady.

Apparently there are lots of people who don't read FR. Ever. Or who recognize malicious bull when they do read it.

97. When decent people see folks ganging up on a sick man...
it makes them want to help out MORE.

That's the interesting and paradoxical role being played by the Anti-Andy forces.

Of course they are too stupid to realize this fact.

Not too many years ago I had a fellow trying to do a character assassination job on me. He thought he could troll out my sexual history and somehow drive me off the Internet. Little did he realize that he was outing me on things that I have been trying hard to out myself on for years, and making himself look petty and foolish in the bargain. Every single time he blogged up some more dirt on me, traffic at my website picked up! :evilgrin:

For the record; I'm bisexual, promiscuous, kinky, into S&M, and I do fisting. Also, I used to be a Libertarian. :evilgrin:

I can't stand the laws against sex and drugs. What you do with your body is your own damned business, not the state's. And I am 100% against state censorship.

But I have realized that I will get better results pushing the Democratic Party in that direction. And in fact there is a movement, the DFC that is organized to do just that.

It's a minority taste at best. I had a girlfriend long ago who was really into it, and I learned how for her. I understand that gynecologists do essentially this for some procedures but without the gradual stretching over days or weeks that accompanies doing it in a sexual context.

As you might expect, pneumatic breast implants. God I hate those. If a woman has REAL large breasts, like Annie Sprinkle or Candye Kane, and a zaftig body to match, that is GREAT! But when you have these skinny things with HUGE implants, that is a cartoon character, not a human being!

:-)

I don't see the harm in people modifying their bodies the way they want them, although it isn't my choice. I'm just a little jealous that I am convinced I was meant to be tall and I'm short and there is no magic operation to fix that one. Supposedly they can lengthen legs in Korea but I'm not convinced.

137. Ha!
I know more strippers and porn folks than probably anybody you know... My usual field of activism, until GWB came along was being a sexworker's rights activist. I have been working for decriminalization of sexwork for most of my adult life.

And I have found some of them to be some of the most reasonable down to earth people. Some real flakes, too, but it is the same in any line of work. And that is how I see it; A form of voluntary labor that is wrongly criminalized to the detriment of the workers and of society as a whole.

153. What was funny to me was this LONG
line of business men (not the computer geeks, the suits) for her autograph (lot of Japanese suits). Many were just in line to say "hi".

How pathetic is that?

Several months later, my wife and I read an interview with Miss "Knockers" where she was quite candid about her dislike for her job and that once she had enough money to buy an island in Canada, she was having the implants removed, retiring with her partner and hoped never to lay eyes on a man again.

Now, any time I see men oggling a centerfold or stripper at these type of events, I wonder...

I was in no way correct to call Misty a whore. That was inappropriate, and reflects my anger at the attitude of the people there towards this whole matter. (And honestly, I didn't realize that MistyMemories was a female person as the avatar was of a guy in a trenchcoat, until she actually wrote me! I thought it was a guy, and calling him "Misty" would get his goat.)

my friends and making false, baseless accusations.

118. I am not apologizing for opposing their smear campaign...
but taking it personal in that particular way was wrong, and I own up to it.

For some reason, whenever I think of the scamdy.com scam, a tune runs through my head... a show tune, at that... from South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut... that's right, the Terence and Philip production number, "Shut Your F$#%ing Face, Unclef$#%er."

Ah, the power of music...

ON EDIT: You can hear the song as an mp3 here. Yep -- that's how I pretty much feel about the scamdy scum...

That happens sometimes.

Usually that is a feature, not a bug; It keeps things viewable when servers get too busy.

157. Heh...
If that's the best they can do, it is pretty pitiful, and not even worth the effort to take down. Not that I would discourage any of you folks from trying to do so by whatever means seems appropriate to you...

But whatever you do, please don't manipulate a top level domain server to redirect that to a porn site. OK?

159. They've found a new host
Although, not the "Russian" hosts they claim

wsc1.jomax.net 64.202.165.4
wsc2.jomax.net 64.202.167.50

It resolves back to godaddy.com if you enter jomax.net into your browser. It either is a division of godaddy for hosting or it's a reseller for them.

Someone will have to check the TOS to see what they are violating, it probably wouldn't be hard to find something.

Also, their registration info remains false and easily proven false which is, of course, still cause for removal from any host. You'd think they would have sprung for the few extra bucks to register privately...but they are clearly idiots.

I'm not sure it's even worth the time to complain about them at this point, the posts there are mostly from the same guy who signs on under 8 different user names and talks to himself ....sad, really.

160. TOS
I confirmed that it is hosted by godaddy in the godaddy FAQ section:

QUESTION: What name servers do I use if I have a GoDaddy.com hosting account?
ANSWER: GoDaddy.com's name servers are: WSC1.JOMAX.NET and WSC2.JOMAX.NET.



Finding TOS violations was easy...
http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/legal_agreements/show_doc.asp?se=%2B&pageid=HOSTING%5FSA

from #4 of the hosting agreement, paragraph 4, it is against their TOS to

(ii) disseminate or transmit any material that, to a reasonable person may be abusive, obscene, pornographic, defamatory, harassing, grossly offensive, vulgar, threatening or malicious;

the jomax.net/godaddy.com TOS is actually more strict than the last place.

They also have a real problem with people providing false information
Universal Terms of Service
https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/agreements.asp?se=%2B&ci=291
#2 Accurate Information
paragraph 2
If You provide any information that is inaccurate, not current, false, misleading or incomplete, or if Go Daddy has reasonable grounds to suspect that Your information is inaccurate, not current, false, misleading or incomplete, Go Daddy has the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to terminate its Services and close Your account.


Send complaints to abuse@godaddy.com or call 480-505-8877 :)

162. I wish we could just put this whole fucking thing to bed already.
I cannot believe that POS site is back. They have questions on the main page, I think we should just stick it to them and show them up. Can you imagine the egg on those losers' faces??? They'd be the laughingstock of whatever hole they crawled out of!

So, let's do it. For Andy!

He doesn't need this barrage of garbage while he is healing.

We know Andy can prove all of this, so let's do it. When you think about it, what they asked for is so easy to prove, so why let them keep dragging this crap out over and over again like last Thanksgiving's leftovers?

This madness has GOT to stop already, so Andy can continue with his very important work for our democracy!
