How about a mass download of one's posted images and a mass delete capability.

That works for me: save a copy of the stuff I've posted, then delete it all. I think I have rights to every image I posted, but I might be wrong, and it would take more time than I want to spend to go back and see if I infringed someone's copyright five years ago.

There are many great trips reports here where one partner writes the report and includes their own pictures plus pictures from their partner – this will create a big gap in many reports if partner provided pictures are deleted

I just checked. Mine all say "Credit Chaz" ... so I'm good.

This one's new. No one's seen it yet.

Out of the 209 pictures that I have posted, I deleted 23 of them. Most of them were pics of car models that I have owned in the past. I grabbed them off the Internet without considering who owned them or if it was cool to post them. I don't know much about these things but it seems reasonable to the ignorant to be considerate. I don't have any attachment to anything I have posted here or anywhere on the Internet. If it was gone tomorrow, so be it. All the good stuff I have gleaned or experienced from participating on this site remains in my heart or on my contacts list. This whole site could disappear and i would still have all of value that I need or want. When you contribute to something you have no control over why bitch about it? If you feel wronged in some manner, do something about it or walk away. Simple.

This is just the way I see it. I don't expect anyone to agree.

Everyone is free to make choices. If this site is not how it used to be or not how you like it or want it to be, that is your problem.

I noticed they didn't touch any of Apogees downloaded photos
that he doesn't own. Same goes for 10b4me

I noticed that too.
I've always respected Chris, but Chris has always seemed to be an absentee landlord.

He comes by one day and sees weeds growing in the yard, and takes it out on the tenants.

None of Cosmics stuff is around which leads me to believe him and Ron A are behind this purge...?

RJ, commendable analysis, braj! I was thinking that CMac could also have just read Shakespeare’s “Henry V” prompting his soul cleansing exercise in nouveau-Machiavellian prophylactic purge.

RJ, I meant the Cosmic Conspiracy theory.

I don’t think it’s Friday Harbour. Mukilteo?

I hope that whoever brought this about is happy with their actions because this is the end of this forum as a ready resource. Nobody is going to wade into my photobucket account for every posted page or image which is what one has to do now and it is only a matter of time before that gets disrupted and the content is lost.
I have permission to post much of the historical content that has been made available to everyone here but my efforts will now be directed toward my own North American Climbing History Archives (NACHA) website.
It has been fun folks but this tar pit wrecks it all.
Cheers

I hear you, Steve. Not what it used to be. I am so glad you started NACHA. Your historical contributions to this site are near the top of my list of why I come here at all. That and the dozen or so friends that post here. The rest is just noise. Even the sacred trip reports. A lot of them are crap. Narcissistic Crap. There is an art to a well formed trip report. Pics are not necessary.

Live long and prosper.

Why would you delete something you have permission to post?

Nobody from this website is going to go through all your photos looking for infringements.

Just use your heads (i.e. dont piss anyone off who's photo you might have copied who also might be looking here)

So how does one save a thread? There are several I would like to save before they get nuked. This sucks.

Word, I'm out. I'll come back around once in a while to check in on you folks but honestly; I have climbing to do...
