i don’t think it’s immature, i think it’s a bit of the OP’s own medicine. OP comes here, doesn’t have his/her facts straight and starts to threaten a site which has been around for however many years. the only thing admin can do when someone like Ipkiss comes here and tries saying they’re going to take legal action against something admin already have looked into is to laugh and play at their own game.
Why do we have this dumb mentality of publicizing something stupid for someone, giving them the exposure they want, and putting them on the world map? Sorry, but whoever put up this silly banner, and caused this dumb thread to go this far needs a lesson in maturity. The original poster (with 1 post to his credit) made his mark and is now perhaps watching the drama.
I was on purpose avoiding entering this thread, as it already has many members of admin team including Azkar, X2 and Niks.. but there are only 3 ways such threads can be received.
Believe that the threat is real and take some defensive actions.: This could be the action of choice if A) OP was a senior member, B) it was a legitimate concern or C) if GS did not already have a posted policy about such issues.
React with a typical backward authoritative style: ... and remove the thread to trash and ban the person, and believe me he qualifies for a ban for making false accusations *(the owner of the original content registers their concern via 'contact us' section or individually sending messages to users; no action is taken..) *and creating an unnecessary drama.
Taking things in jest: There is no seriousness in this thread to begin with. The accusation is fabricated and the threat is hilarious . If the owner/admins/members of this website are having fun in this thread then I do not see any reason why it should be objectionable.
If anyone does not agree with number 3 then as the director of this site, I will go with resolution number 2.
ok ya’aal .. fun is over. for those who missed, here is a screenshot.
Officially, as TLK said, we have done our research and the said photos are freely available on various bridal sites and google; not just FB. And this response was not to the removal request; it was for the threat. We entertain genuine requests all the time. And if our way of fun did not suit your nazak taba’a then what else can I say other than ‘go to hell’
