Douglas James McDonald ... What's his real name? THE CURE FOR RITA!

... Rita Berkowitz wrote: Only way you'll ever convince anyone worth convincing you are without guilt is to go two solid months without mentioning D-Mac or respond to him or any of his sockpuppets directly. Try not to use socks to skirt the challenge. This should be easy for someone that claims to be "taking the moral high ground" in all of this. Are you up to the challenge, Mark? Oh, and show us what kind of man you are by archiving this post in its entirety instead of creatively snipping it. You're so predictable and so easy to make dance, my little puppet. Rita Don't fall for this criminal's tricks Rita. He will try to come across as being a nice fellow and while you have your back turned, not just stick a big knife in it but twist it too. The amazing part of all his stunts is he believes he alone is capable of clearing Usenet of all the honest people he "discovers" are on to him. I'm not sure what your feedback rating is but mine is over 115 and 100%. I'm actualy surprised you even know how to spell "Honest" doug, let alone use it in a sentence. I'm not sure you even know the definition but lets ignore that for the moment and look at YOUR history on Usenet shall we. The most blatant and fraudulent incident of yours that imediately springs to mind is your Graham Hunt sockpuppet coming to your aid when you were trying to sell your bogus Photo kiosks, now I'm no lawyer (but I have friends who are) and that sets all the flags for simple *fraud* As you know, you don't get this sort of response from your clients if you aren't totally honest. Mark would have all his followers (both of them) believe he is the only honest person on Usenet. LOL. Well compared to you Doug, Mark is a saint regardless of anything you may say to the contrary, have you noticed the only person you have in your camp is Rita, that should tell you a great deal about your standing within the photo groups, after all the Troll rita has been getting his ares smacked nearly as much as you do so I suppose its only natural for a rat to cling to a turd. His little escapade with Australia's company watchdog gets me rolling in the isles - "I'll get my mates at ASIC to investigate you". Here is a hint, ASIC is probably the least of your worries Doug :-) No one there has any knowledge of Charles Stevens or Mark Thomas. Maybe his mates are all dancing to the same tune as him? Just people that don't exist. Let's not forget this gem: "Lies, all lies. You don't have a shop front" http://www.douglasjames.com.au/evidence/shopfront.htm I wonder where he keeps his guide dog? And then there was this (recent) display of Markie gross stupidity: "The EPA doesn't issue photography permits" Hullo, hullo, wot's this then? http://www.douglasjames.com.au/evidence/permit.htm ...Hmm he's dyslexic too! And to cap off this condensed version of the little dancer's stupidity, is the incredible gem of wisdom about the Queensland State PRESIDENT of the AIPP (Photbyron)'s wedding photography: "Amateurish". Yeah... Way to go Markie old boy, definitely the way to go! Keep it up and you could become Usenet's most stupid idiot... If you aren't already there! He has a LONG way to go to even see your dust let alone get anywhere close to overtaking you, after all your so dumb that you cant even creat another sockpuppet without it being discoverd and outed within moments of its first appearance. Hey by the way... Thanks for the Google lift Mark... Number 5 in the results for "Certified professional Photographers" today. You did an excellent job of that one Mark. A single page site ranking 6 after it's first month of existence. It's a good thing I found your strings. I'd hate to have you on a commission only basis! ROTFL. It must realy stick in your throat to know that your google ranking is riding on the back of your blatant abuse of Usenet, after all are you not the same person that keeps harping on about etics in here. Dont worry, most of us understand you wont see the irony in that. The thing is Rita, Those of us who make a living doing what he failed at, know a thing or two about business and how to run one. Realy Doug, what sucessful business would that be, you have nothing but cheap arsed ebay auctions and a plethora of ugly web sites. Old Markie and his gang of supporters (both of them) I dont suppose that fact that you have absolutly NO support in here has escaped your attention have demonstrated many, many times they are just trolls in the hope of making themselves out to be useful when in fact they are demonstrating with every post to be the most useless of the useless. Did you look in a mirror when you wrote that Doug Me and Big Squid -- "Calling Atheism a religion is like calling bald a hair color." Don Hirschberg |

It is very obvious who the photographers are in this group and who is just here to play Usenet games. You posted a photo? And you have to ask why SI was a complete and total failure? The Shoot-In has had 129 different mandates and over 1,000,000 hits since we started it in 1993. Call me when any of your sites reach that level of "total failure." Given what Lisa and I thought about the project back then, I'd call it a wild success. If I thought it would ever run this long I wouldn't have used Roman Numerals to number the mandates. (BTW, Kramer, 128 is CXXVIII and 98 is XCVIII.) Besides, the Shoot-In isn't dead, it's just asleep. Hell, I might even take it back over if it would **** you off. Some thoughts arising: Some sort of commitment to support the SI from posters here might help Annika or Alan to take it on. 2 or 3 months ago when we had the discussion about SI I committed to contribute, and that commitment still stands. Unfortunately I missed frauds, not due to a lack of commitment to participate, but due to a lack of camera. As soon as I get one of them back from repair I'll be keen to get back into it. I didn't feel that any influence from trolls or denigrators affected my participation - when I did submit an image, that is, and I did submit a few - but usually other pressures, and probably laziness intervened, so I could have done better. Yeah, none of the fights affect my participation either. I find it hard to believe that people would decide not to contribute just because a couple of others are having an argument. If it revives, I'll commit to submitting more often. Mandates; some have been better than others, and I confess that as president of our local camera club I have used some of them in the monthly comps to get away from the usual CC fodder of bland subjects, to stretch the members' minds a bit. They protested at first that the subjects were too hard - chiaroscuro had them going for a while - but after the comp. was over, they admitted it had been good for them. I think mandates are needed. A mandateless(?) SI would soon lose appeal. We could recycle some of the past mandates, and of course entertain new ones with an eye to improving knowledge. Yes, I like the idea of keeping the mandates. But I do think we need more stylistic type mandates rather than subject oriented mandates. I'd like to see mandates that encourage people to develop photographic skills - things like low-key, high-key, depth-of-field, slow-shutter etc. It's one thing to be able to make a photo that is low-key, has limited DOF etc - it's another thing to make a photo that really works with that style. These types of mandates encourage getting out there and improving skills. A mandate like Autumn otoh (when it is spring in the southern hemisphere, but I digress) simply encourages you to go out and take a snap of something autumn-related, without really being a tool for developing skills. Mind-stretching mandates are valuable as a tool to improve photographic repertoire - broadening how we approach a subject, how to handle a difficult shot, a wider appreciation of lighting, and so on. Agree. Colin D. |
