BRUCE ???

topic posted Wed, April 30, 2008 - 6:45 AM by 
The top mods in #1, #2, #3 & # 5 spots as of yesterday morning, I have been told, are ALL alts of Bruce? That he is also SATAN/Grundig? I thought this guy was permanently banned from Tribe for harassment and various other reasons? But mostly harassment I think? So he's been around with several alts for a while now? Hmm. Interesting.

Oz, Super Oz, Lady Jess, Warrior, Mickey, Satan/Gundig. Hmm. I wonder how many others?

    - Mickey is not Bruce, i know this because i've met him.

    - Satan/Grundig is not Bruce. i know this because i've spoken to him and know
    where he's located, and it's not Florida.

    - Lady Jess is the wife of goofaman and not an alt.


    - Oz is definitely Bruce and Tribe admin doesn't seem to care.

    OK, I just noticed this!

    I've been a little preoccupied, to say the least.

      That's what pisses me off about it too. Darren is busy working on Tribe stuff to make it good for us all and Bruce and other trolls like him are wasting Darrens time. As well as making a hostile environment in the guise of being friendly. Just as before. He's pretending to be other people. He's mocking and making fun people. Etc..... If he was spewing forth blatant racism surely that would be unacceptable. Yet harassment of others as well as homophobic bs is apparently more acceptable and easy to overlook. He's the malignant cancer of Tribe that's come back from remission. It's sad how one prick can sour the Tribe experience for so many people. Now Mr. Shithead ( actually what he's named himself. ) is one of the top 5 most active moderators? If you look at his tribe you will see why. Why? Because he posts non-stop bullshit and knows that it's all about numbers. Quantity of posts over quality. He's obsessed. I have stated several times in the past that I don't think the top 5 mod thing should even exist because if it didnt exist, some people wouldnt feel the need to litter up Tribe space with tons of totally useless drivel just to secure their position that they view as preimminent / dominant. It sucks for moderators that are in those positions ( or not in those positions ) simply due to quantity of content. If one guy has two or three, or five or more alts, and he posts so much bs that more than one or all of his alts are regularly in the top 5, that's fucked up.

      But if you take away the top 5 thing then some mods may think it's unfair that it's been taken away because one person has ruined it for the rest of us. The top 5 can be fun to check out and see who is most active and to check out their tribes and see what all the buzz is about. It's cool to be able to jump in and participate if your interested too. But when the top 5 is Bruce, when I check out his tribes, all I see is a cesspool of ignorance and the leader of a snakepit. A snakepit that has several more of his own alts having conversations with himself and other willing or possibly unwitting subjects that are either blind to it or gleefully joining in knowingly. It's pathetic.

      I just took a look and it looks like he has been magically POOFED by Darren AGAIN!!! Yaaaaaaay!!! Is it possible to tell who all his alts are too or could they still be lurking still? I'm not just being paranoid. That guy seriously creeps me and makes me feel violated and victimized. Thank you Darren. If anyone else gives a shit about this I'd like to just state one more thing about this situation. If youre looking at any of it, look at those people that support him and keep the fact that they support him in mind. The fact that they do speaks volumes of their character as people.

      I think Darren took out all his alts too because if you look at this thread all the different "people" that were talking to each other were actually all him talking to himself. LadyJess was the only person left on the stolen identities thread. ( tribes.tribe.net/newproces...f1c245eb49 ) I wonder if she was aware that everyone else was all the same nutjob? She's either complicit or possibly just naive, gullible, innocent, ??? Got duped? Willfully participating? Hmm. Interesting.

        And another thing. Before he changed to his Mickey avatar pic he had my picture with my face censored. That was kind of obvious. Then he, as Mr Shithead, claimed to be me. Isnt that impersonation? Identity theft? Defamation of character? All things that he threatens to sue other for. ( rolls eyes )

        "Unsubscribed alts. I know. I wonder if the other people on that tribe know? If they are smart enough to even understand what that means? And if they are then they are willingly participating in that shit.

          On Tuesday I had opened Tribe and before logging in, on the welcome page I saw the picture you are talking about, Mr. M, of you with a rectangle blocking your face. I clicked on the recent post ( the recent posts that one can only see before one logs in) and came to the thread in which he was claiming to be you.

          The person had already changed their avatar photo from the one that was your's, but the recent posts thread still had your picture (with blacked out face). It was weird. They must have conspired, first to get the other top mod positions, and then to change their avatar pics to that cartoon of the underdog, and then for a short while Bruce (it looks like now) even had that pic of you as his avatar. It stinks of conniving back stabbing and I am very happy that Darren doesn't like it either.

          Perhaps they like to pick on you Mr. M because you do show a reaction and that gives them some sort of twisted rush. Or maybe I should be saying he, not they.

          It's too bad he has supporters. At least 2 others who got themselves in the top mod spots and then at least for a while used that underdog cartoon character as their avatar along with his avatars.

          Anyway, I just wanted to add this post so people would know who read this that I saw him using your picture as himself, too. And that 4 of the top 5 mods on Tuesday had that underdog cartoon character pic as their avatar for a while. Yep, I saw it, too.

            I have discovered another suspect alt, one which has definitely stolen my pictures, including one of my "friends only" pics. How does one go about getting that alt deleted?

            Eeeesh, what kind of time do people have that they can go about making such trouble on a social networking site?! This sort of energy should be harnessed and used to light up houses, or dig wells or feed the homeless or some worthwhile action that could actually do some good.

            This shite just proves a fair amount of adults never seem to outgrow middle school.

            my two cents.

              No, what this means is that there needs to be a better system to flag abuse. These problems are but a drop in the bucket as far spam, abuse, and user interactions go.

              I am rethinking a lot of things at the moment about tribe, this is one of them.

                  Mickey told me that Lady Jess asked him to change his avatar picture to the underdog picture because she thought it would be "fun." Apparently she is buddies with B I'm not sure. Now some of the members on the WARNING tribe think I'm a troll victimizing B and that I probably have several alts. I told them that B was kicked off Tribe for harassing people and that Darren doesnt just kick people off for no reason. And also that Darren can prove that I only have one profile on Tribe. Either his friends are trolls too or just really ignorant and gullible. Or both.

                    I am, of course, not referring to Lady J with the previous statement. For the record, she has only ever been a sweetheart to me.

                    I'm glad to hear that. I didn't like thinking that Mickey was part of the conspiracy.

                        STOP THE WITCH HUNT.

                        Seriously. You guys are all rank amateurs.

                        You are feeding the troll. You empower them. Just stop and ignore them. It's obvious when they show up. They cannot resist the bait laid out before them. We know when they show up before you do.

                        Just go about your business, and have fun. We have it covered.

                          I'd agree with that. But it goes beyond trolling when someone steals your image, posts your personal information, or in some way harasses or threatens you.

                            j3r3 I do have tourettes and also nymphomania. Don't get too close or I may hump your leg.

                            It's the harassment thing that bothers me so much. I will try to let it go and if I see the same shit again I'll just send a message to someone and let them deal with it. This type of thing is just upsetting. When one person and some of that persons "friends", whether they are real or his own alts harass others who are truly just here to have fun and learn things or whatever. I didnt create this situation and don't make up lies about people.

                            Please forgive my harsh response but that's how strongly I feel about Bruce. Lady Jess' husband is all up my ass and some other dude on that WARNING tribe is psychoanalyzing me like he knows everything.

                            Whatever. Till the next episode I guess.

                              THERE IS A SIMPLE SOLUTION

                              If you are being harassed, if you pictures are taken and used in a way to impersonate (remember folks, parody is legal) in order to deceive, or if in doubt:

                              email abuse@tribe.net

                              Let the TOUguy handle it. Nobody has to know. Nobody will know unless you blab. Yes, my friends over on watchdog will most like flame me for saying run and tattle, but honestly, that is the simple and efficient recourse you have.

                              If you engage, publicize or draw attention these shinanigans you are only feeding the troll.
