Somebody put a message with my name that I did not post. I have talked with the moderator about this already, and we decided that whomever did this, either can admit to it or there will be a trace put on it tomorrow morning. I don’t know who thinks this site is for games and pranks, but it is not funny. You will be found out. We are even thinking about pressing charges againist the person that did this. I am sorry to everyone on here that we have to put up with stuff like this.

I recently had someone use my email address to post a very obscene post. I tried to post this in the stl freecycle, to warn anyone else or to get help with this. I was turned down and banned from the stl freecycle because of this. Just letting everyone know that this is how the stl freecycle is respecting their members. I am pretty sure that there are other groups for the stl area, but I for one will not go back to this one.

Thanks for you time.
Tammy

I would also like to inform all of the group moderators that if you keep deleting my stupid annoying drama-queen posts that I will seek revenge by putting you all out of business with my superior Godfrey freecycle group. Just because I like to crosspost my retarded bullshit to every single fucking freecycle group within a 100 mile radius is no reason to be hating on me.

Freecycle consumes my entire life and I will do everything in my power to make sure that you all know me and pity me in hopes that some of you will feel sorry for me and be friends with me.

Until my next cross-posting rant,
Tammy

what in the world is wrong with you? i think you need to take your
ranting to someone who gives a crap go hang out at the local
homeless shelter or something theres lots of people there that need
someone to talk to who knows maybe youlle even amuse one or two of
them in the mean time leave all of us alone this is a nice peaceful
place to hang out trade and meet lots of really good hearted people
so if thats not what your looking for please leave….dave….

i am confused noe is there two tammies here or what is going on? all
i was tryin to say was that i for one dont necessarilly (or however
you spell that) like that kind of use of profanity and if im not
mistaking i read a message that someone is wanting to take revenge
and shut down this f,ing bussiness and i understand from a reply
that someone stole an email addy and is posting bogus messages so
if this is another one from the bogus people ill tell you like the
other message leave everyone here alone and i was not trying to
hurt anyone whos ligit in this i just dont want to see this sight
turn into something like this i was just making a point that i do
believe most would prob agree this is not a sight for anger threats
and vulgarity thanks again and im sorry if i didnt understand your
situation tammy …dave…

Love,
Tammy

I am new to freecycle, and think the idea of having a place to help the community is great.
Seems to me that the person that keeps sending offensive messages should be banned from the group.
We are adults here I assume, she needs to find someplace else to get rid of her emotional trash.

If this person continues to spoof your emails in Alton Freecycle, we
can put a stop to it by making all posts have to be approved. So
don’t worry we’ll take care of it if it keeps happening.

Hope your day is going well!
Brad

I have spoken with Det. ***** ******, with Alton Police Dept. He has confirmed that these emails did not come from me. You are more than welcome to call and confirm with what I am telling you. His number is
(618) 463-3505 ext: ***. These emails came from a cell phone made to a company to place the email(s). I would very much appreciate it if you would make a post in your sites letting everyone know that this indeed was not me doing this. I am not wanting people to think that I am the kind of person that would post such a thing or try to get any group stopped. I like these groups and want to have them continue. I would also like to have my named cleared of what people think that I have done, but didn’t.

Thank you for your time and patience.
Tammy

Regarding the recent Bogus E Mail…sent to the different Freecycle Sites…
The Police and other authorities are now involved..so this will all be cleared up soon…
This is just a FYI for all Members…
If you have any questions..Please send private E Mail…to rainbowmoonlady@aol.com ADMIN

Hi everyone - I hope I am reaching all of you! Just in case you are not aware, the Godfrey, Illinois group is NOT an official Freecycle group and should not be promoted on any of your groups. Please delete any messages promoting this group.

The moderator, Tammy, has had two groups rejected for various reasons. She has been asked to delete the Godfrey group or remove all references to Freecycle, but she refuses. She has been sent a “cease and desist” letter.

Please email me if you have any questions, or you may contact Midwest Group Outreach Advisor Judy as well, by emailing her at central@freecycle.org

You might also wish to remove Tammy from your group - but that is entirely up to you. All official Freecycle groups are listed on www.freecycle.org. The Illinois groups are located in the US Central link.

Thanks everyone - hope you’re all having a great weekend!

Thanks for helping save the planet! http://groups.yahoo.com/group/freecyclespfldil/

I have one box full of dildos, ticklers, vibrating creams, pocket pussies and a few porn video tapes that I don’t need anymore now that I’ve given my life to God. Will consider splitting items in box up. My grandson zak absolutely loves the purple jelly dildo but it’s not exactly a kid’s toy.

Email if interested.

Due to that way that the inapropriate email that has come across the
network was worded (I dont think anyone would mentions this an their
grandchild in the same email if it were not a poor excuse for a
prank) and the defence that the person had submitted I am going to
assume that this was a fraudulant post.
Due to some information that was invoved within that post we can
assume that the person knows the person who owns the account.

Until this can be straightend out do not respond to the “sender” of
this post or tell her how inapropriate you think it was, I assure
you she agrees and is does not know how this happend.

Please be awair of who has your information ie. Login name and
passwords. Don’t judge too harshly when someting bad happens as in
this case there may have been a misunderstanding

I did not post the inapropriate items earlier. I have either been hacked
by someone or been the victim of an office prank. I leave my yahoo
page up on my computer during the day at work and I often leave my
desk for extended periods and don’t logoff (which I will now do). I
am trying to get this straightened out and hope you will accept my
sincere apologies for the inappropriate posting.

Christine

Also, I still have the box of sex toys available to anyone that wants it. I would never let Zak play with something that’s been in my pussy though. That’s just disgusting! Please email if interested and again, my apologies for the comment about my grandson. I didn’t write that part of it!

Christine

I want to appologize for the filth and vulger messages that have
come through here today.

Since the main freecycle org has sent down the commandment to make
all freecycle groups unmoderated, we have little control if a member
goes rouge or someone uses their email.

We make every attempt to stop this kind of things from happening.

The main freecycle org thinks it’s better unmoderated so this is out
our (mods) hands.

Thanks for your patience.

For all of you that wonder why we went from moderated to moderate
new members only. Here is the rule from Freecycle Org

*** DON’T FULLY MODERATE YOUR GROUP. Full moderation of all posts is
not allowed. Moderation of new member posts is fine – just remember
to take the folks off moderation once they post correctly.
Important: The moderation of troublemakers is highly advised.

Freecycle™ works best without full moderation. Empower your members
to give directly to another bi-ped without moderator intervention,
quickly, easily and enjoyably. Trust and empower the members
directly as much as humanly possible and it’ll pay out (forgive the
metaphor) in spades when your group gets really big.

Why? Because by then all members will know and use the rules
correctly. You have taught them to fish rather than giving them fish
for a day, right? This is why we don’t allow FULL moderation. It’s
like “Freecycle™ lite.” It tastes kinda like The Freecycle™ Network,
but doesn’t pack that caffeinated punch, is slower, and more
controlled. Be bold, trust, and educate members unless individuals
give you a reason not to and moderate those individuals.

thanks for your understanding.
