Joe you stupid fukup you could have just done it the easy way.
Instead you had to dig in where you couldn't win.
Your 1st amendment argument was never a factor when you take credit for someone Else's work.
Gawdamn you're stupid sometimes .....

I guess he learned that his 1st amendment rights don't apply to privately owned internet forums.
I don't support banning based on censorship issues. But when he refused to honor the polite request by the photog to remove the image JH stepped over a line. I'm glad he got hit with the ban hammer.
An apology to Dean would probably go a long way in convincing the admin to let him back. I wonder if his ego will allow him to make amends.

"Without Joe on the Political thread...

Not a chance.
Neither person will appreciate this comparision, but hedge was the left equivalent of fattrad.
fattrad got the axe, and the polititard rantings went on just fine...as will that thread post-hedge.
And I wouldn't be a bit surprised if hedge returned at some point.

wait, i'm confused. is there a stonenude calendar of beavers now? the male stonenude calendar didn't go over so well from what i hear so i'm surprised that dean is trying to get into the wildlife demographic. i can possibly see a bonobo stonenude calendar doing alright sales-wise but seems like beavers are not really into this sort of thing. i've tried sharing porn with beavers but they just email you .zip files of hundreds of pics of dams. weird, but whatever you're into i guess.
i'll just see myself out now.

sorry but i dont think little girls the age of my grand niece are "sexual" in any way
Uhm... what?
Obviously that girl is of legal age, else she wouldn't be published nude like that. Respectfully, Ron... I can't imagine any red blooded male of any age who would declare her "not sexy" just because she has a big age differential to that of the observer.
If you were still 20 years old, would you feel differently? If you had no close female relatives of roughly the same age, would you feel differently?
I'm 45 and my girlfriend is in her mid 20's. Does that make me a pervert?
The USA pretty much stands alone with this weird shaming of men over any age difference in excess of 10 years.

Hey there say Joe. I missed all the action and don't know what occurred . Might be good for you to take a breather, go take walk outside and reacquaint yourself with fresh air again - you seemed to be setting records posting more than everyone else combined. It wouldn't have been an issue had 1 out of 1000 been a climbing shot:-} Don't let it get under you skin is all I'm sayin'.

Its interesting how people want to focus on the picture copyright issue when it was clearly a case of major dickhead not copyright.
Additionally, Joe's interpretation of "fair use" may or may not be correct. Even in his earlier citation you'll find recurring terms such as these:
“quotation of excerpts..."
"quotation of short passages..."
"summary of an address or article, with brief quotations..."
"reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work..."
When it comes to photographs, things are less clear--but even there, copying someone else's entire work is generally not covered by fair use.

I clicked on that thread when it was only 2 pages and instantly thought, there goes Joe. self destruct. suicide by cop. the whole snitch routine is pretty darn weak though and should only be used for spam or by someone who is being seriously attacked. Ron is a big boy and could have done the reporting if he felt genuinly threatened or bullyed.

often in real life it is the right thing.

Ron was being attacked and could have complained to admin if he felt he needed to. Someone else doing it is weird sh#t.
Ok Ron beat me to the post. Ron reporting him is fine. random post police is BS INMOP

"I never reported hedge for anything UNTIL he spat in the eye of Bullwinkle and his art work."
You are not in a great place to use this as a rationale, Ron.
Far and away, you were the prime example of where Joe levelled his vitriole. For the most part, you handled it well (to your credit), but it's pretty hard to not see the supposed copyright violation issue you've cited as not much more than a good opportunity for you to have a foe taken down.
This is not to validate Joe's tactics by any means. It takes two people to create the kind of dumbass back & forth that went on between you two.

That's a really lame accusation, Ron.
And even if true, it doesn't make your own choice to 'report' Joe any less of your own choice.
Being a regular at ST...esp. in the polititard arenas...means having something of thick skin, and having integrity for your own actions & words. It's not your responsibility to protect the copyrights of anyone (except your own), least of all when doing so is a means to take down an adversary.
That's not 'karma' in any sense of the word.

Edit: "Suppose something is going wrong and people see it and DON'T speak out???...
Sometimes people NEED to step in..."
How about this idea...first of all, you go to that person directly...and if that doesn't work, then you go 'over their heads'.....

Like so many before him jhedge posting on OT threads would have been twice as interesting if he would have posted half as much.
My take on jhedge is that he has more vitriol and ire, than say a fattrad; is less cogent than RoxJox; and their equal in the OCD department. Jhedge’s true colors shone through, when after Bullwinkle asked him not to use his artwork in a thread which implicitly labeled the model a “pussy”; he hid behind some kind of idiotic and convoluted argument (like so much of his reasoning) invoking the 1st amendment instead of seeing that honoring the request (deleting the thread) is ethical behavior and not to mention in compliance with the DMCA
I will say, I take schadenfreude in the howls of indignation rising from the thinning salt and pepper haired cracker barrel wing of the ObamaNation that passes as political thought on ST – you guys are the new dittoheads – load up on your low pressers, Zoloft, Ambien and give yourself a prostate exam and keep telling yourself you got it all figured out.

Blue,
No Obama won't enroll himself in ACA. And I agree that he is insincere in his stated political ideology.
The republicans attitude toward health care, and most of the opinions you give, are equally ridiculous. They made no effort to improve health care prior to Obama. They opposed the ACA at the same time they claimed it was unavailable to the public. The conservatives claimed it was socialist, it would fail, be too expensive, there would be death squads, it was unconstitutional. But they also claimed they couldn't read it because the socialist president wouldn't release it. About as ridiculous as Nancy Pelosi's comment, wouldn't you say?
The Obama drones are gullible. The conservatives are motivated by spite and forget to make any steps toward any improvements because it might benefit people they don't like. That's not an admirable position, nor patriotic, is it?

I spent quite a bit of time on a bagpiping site. On that site the people were studiously courteous with each other, opinions were expressed as opinions and reasons for that opinion given; and posters never posted repeatedly in an attempt to dominate a thread. There we had people who had made world level contributions, but that was never a factor in the discussions.
It was just plain great. Great information nearly every time.
On ST we occasionally get a great thread. ST's overall ambience, however, leaves a lot to be desired.

That's because this site is inhabited mostly by monkeys from the stupid soup that they claim all the chemicals came from by chance and made life.
The intelligent class do not come from this stupid soup of chance chemicals.
The intelligent class descend from intelligence itself .......

What fools like you have to have pounded into your skulls, is that your new 'dream-system' is just that, a dream, an unworkable Utopian fantasy. You claim to be saving millions, but you don't realize you're condemning EVERYBODY to mediocrity. You will be killing more than you claim to be 'saving'. This isn't the dream system. The dream system is single payer. This is what we ended up with after a year of fighting and too many compromises.
You think he really believes in all this sh#t? Is he going to enroll? I do believe he believes it, and yes, I think he will have insurance that meets the requirements set forth by the ACA.

Ha, well said Chris.
Joe is an emotional gal.... especially when it concerns political BS.
But we've all done a ton of climbing together and he was always a good friend and climbing partner. Those are the times I value the most. For that, even though I sometimes wonder why, I still consider him a friend.

I had to dig a little bit, but I knew there would be a fattrad appreciation thread in here somewhere. So, bump.
Though our ideologic differences are often stark, fattrad is one of the very few Repubs who usually remains quite respectful in how he presents his position. (He does a better job than I do, that's ferdamshur.) I oftentimes don't agree with his view of the world, but because he can communicate it in a rational way, I'm always open to hearing it. I have great respect for that, fattrad- you are an important, valuable part of this whackjob ST community. Thanks for being here.

The best part of this is the fact your post followed mine by two minutes!
fattrad was a class act compared to your unending blather, Rong.

Way to go you two.. Guess ill burn this thread and wont ever bother to post ON TOPIC again..
Ron, you started that thread simply as a distraction away from the slimy, spineless sh1t you pulled to take down an adversary. A thread like that, following your role in hedge's chop, was going to be squarely in the sights of anyone you've alienated over the years...and you know this damn well.
The thread was a nice idea...and there were some nice shots up to the point you nuked it...but such a thread would be far better started by someone who posts 90% climbing/10% OT, as opposed to yourself.

I don't think hedge was wrong, i think everyone else was wrong. He's the last one that could ever be wrong. Just ask him & he'll tell you. He is not wrong. We were wrong, he is right. Hedge is always right no matter what.
I'm going to miss all his kind words to others & climbing contributions.
RyanD is posting some quality here.

jghedge was a distraction that needed to be reeled in. While I post a bunch of political bullshit here, I also post sh#t that's climbing-related.
He never did, not that I can recall.
As for the Ron-haters? Whatever, you guys just dislike his opinions and can't tolerate views that are counter to yours. Haters gonna hate....

Say it ain't so, Joe! One of my favorite posters reduced to using new pseudonyms. One of the wonderful things about a few days off is the ability to be in the mountains rather than merely read about them. I take a few days off from ST and it seems all hell broke loose.
I only know Joe from the internet, but considering the entire package of what I read, I greatly appreciate his presence here. So he has faults. Find me someone here who doesn't.
If he violated ST's terms of use, I guess there's little reason to complain, but it doesn't mean I won't miss his comments.
And of course this place is an insane asylum, but it's an asylum of intelligent nutcases. We are, after all, climbers.

Actually, Steve, he posted quite a bit on the "First Ascent Principle" thread. Of course, as usual, he was wrong, but well-reasoned.

Maybe so, John, I just never saw it.
I do understand also that some would perceive me to be as irrational as I claim he was.
A man has to understand his limitations, in the words of an awesome actor. I know where I stand, and I understand why people collide with me.
I just don't post pics of naked chix that some other Tacohead thought was 'art'. No offense to Bullwinkle.

Really love you all ...and I do mean everyone ...it's really been great . The folks I disagree with the most I still consider my friends and look forward to climbing with and spending time with many of you still ..
I consider folks like Russ Walling to be solid gold and I don't give a damn about politics as it relates to what kind of human being someone is ... Bunch of f*#king bullshit when it comes down to it.
I really like Ron, Jhedge, Fatrad and of course Crowley no matter what has been said online.
That said my time here is over .
I find most of the comments I want to make here are negative, for some reason, which is the exact opposite of who I am in every other area of my life.
Facebook for me now contains many old and new friends, family and climbers and the shared interests and conversations are stimulating, polite and engaging.
And if it does get rude I just block the person..
I'm forever grateful to ST for allowing me to get to know the greater climbing world and to learn so much.
See ya all a bunch more at the crag or on Facebook ..
