god, can you imagine being a new member and reading this thread in its entirety shortly after leaving the new member lounge. as the subject seems to be fairly exhausted maybe a thread removal could be the next step in damage limitation. having this thread is the next most damaging thing to inviting those guys back. time to draw a line under it methinks

Do we leave it to remind kids of the dangers on the internet, urge them to contact someone if they are approached in this way and to let any potential new predators know that they aren't welcome here?

Or...Do we remove it to avoid embarassment, and try to 'make it go away'?

This isn't the ONLY forum where things like this happen

I say Damn them to hell.

I'm sorry I've been working 12+ hour days and haven't had a chance to post before this. Dave and company are some strange and scary people who were harassing and freaking out female members. When I came in here brand new and knew absolutely nothing about what was going on and who was who, Dave was very welcoming. I received tons of p.m.s welcoming me and encouraging me to visit "his" J horror board along with a lot telling me who the idiots and jerks were from the old group and how he and his friends were simply being abused for no good reason. I also got them from Trippin, who seemed another very nice and welcoming member. It seemed he doth protest too much about how he was the glue who held this site together, but I honestly thought he and a couple of his cohorts were like that loud, drunk aunt at the wedding who embarasses and annoys everyone, but are basically harmless.

As I was on the site more and more, I noticed that they were simply stirring crap with every member they could. Any, and I do mean ANY, topic was cause for a meeting of the minds with this crew to see how they could agitate. The Yahoo messenger burned alot of bandwidth for them to come up with ways to harass and irritate anyone and everyone, but especially the mods and the people who had been here any length of time. That was their point for being here. Nothing else. It was all about irritating people they felt had wronged them. They would hop on new people after the first post and try to get you to defend them and what wonderful, wronged people they were.

I made the mistake of getting into yahoo with Dave one night when he said he wanted to talk to me about something. He started a multi-chat, pulling in several cohorts whom I had not spoken to on or off the boards. One member activated his webcam on which he, pretty regularly, shows his penis. I was not the first invitee to this little show. Apparently several underage girls who frequented the site had also been invited at one time or another prompting the "why being a pervert pedophile is okay" speech. I believe there were warnings, etc. at that point, to which they took great umbrage. Well, if a 14 year old girl wants to look at a 30-some year old man jerking off, why should HDC care that that's where they were targeted...prudes!! They were pictures of men....err...at the completion stage of....pleasuring themselves being sent around. I declined and logged...fast and left them with the thought that if they sent me a picture of that nature, they had better keep a copy because after what I would do to their testicles, they would need it to remember when their plumbing functioned.

Of course this was followed up with a post on the boards about how much he enjoyed our conversation, then 4 or so p.m.s about how he sincerely hoped I wasn't offended. They are just open minded and a little wierd and like to talk about sex. Since then I haven't been on this site because, frankly, with this bunch of freaks and perverts I figured I would just go gently into that goodnight and say the hell with this place. I mean, between the boards being loaded with them posting the most inane drivel on purpose just to try and ruin the board, what's the use of fighting the uphill battle.

For those that defend Dave and think his posting idiocy is not bannable, think again. How many people who would be good, fun, knowlegeable contributors to this site never even bother to register because a quick trip through the boards is nothing but vapid drivel and constant conversation about why certain people shouldn't get banned? The only reason I made it that far was that it honestly seemed to me that this was not approved of, in general. Do you think that people posting endlessly about how they want to be banned and how they are just assholes, they can't help themselves and they will do it again, is really a good way to attract people you'd ever want to talk to?

In addition, I'm sure I'm not the only one that has been invited to these little parties from here, then harassed here for saying, okay you sick freaks, if you all want to sit around all night and look at each other's schlongs, have a ball, but leave me out of it. I'm pretty sure the mods have a long list. Especially since I didn't even contact the mods.

Censorship sounds very scary and Orwellian and everyone goes into apoplexy about how they are being repressed. What's worse is when you have a small number of people, most who have been banned before (and are exploiting the lack of an ISP block) come back under another name to create trouble and basically kill the board to settle old scores. They were already banned and came right out and said I'm back under another name to cause trouble. Banning is the only possible option.

As for Dave and everyone being against him because he's Korean and can't spell..err...Dave has been in the states his whole life. He graduated from school here and he lives in California. He's just illiterate. I'm sorry, if you can't sing, don't stand up at karaoke and if you can't spell or type coherent sentences, stay off of boards where coherent writing is a prerequisite!!

It's been going on for quite a while

He was one of the few members I "thought" I'd made a connection with. He sent me a few PMs that were odd, but nothing risque or inappropriate. (By odd I mean that they were a little too needy, like he was trying to make friends.) I replied to them and tried to be nice. Now I feel kind of weird; I can't really explain it. Needless to say, I didn't have it anywhere near as bad as some. I'm glad that the situation was taken care of. Hats off to the mods.

Dave was the nice, funny guy who lured the girls into a false sense of security, talked them into agreeing to a private chat...Then Trip came in (to the private chat) and started his part...Dave would make the girls feel 'okay' by agreeing with the things that Trip did and said, and tried to make a joke out of it...Like he was their friend and it was all normal, and no big deal...They would tell these young girls that they were 'young women' and that people shouldn't treat them like little kids...Well, there's a lot more to it, but it's the typical 'grooming' shit...

Has everyone forgotten Dave's many mentions of his 'school girl fantasies'?

There was never any mention of Dave showing his parts to anyone...But, as an accomplice...I say he's just as guilty

I also wanted to add that Trip was acting on his own long before Dave came to the forum...Trip was finding it more and more difficult to 'do his thing' here as more and more people were becoming leary of him...Most of his last posts were to defend himself...Not everyone was oblivious...Dave gave him the edge that he needed

Obviously the full story is known 'behind the scenes' - which most of us have not been privy to - so much of the reaction to this sensitive issue has been based on hearsay.

His 'school girl' talk might have been assumed to be referring to the well known 'Japanese look' he seemed to be a bit obsessed with (did many people bat an eyelid about this kind of thing before he was exposed?), but if this is really the nature of what he has been saying to young kids on Yahoo then he obviously has far more sinister preoccupations which extend beyond him being just 'a bit thick'.

The other guy was more articulated, which seems to make him even more calculating in all this.

At least that way there will be ONE reminder around to all psychopaths who would wanna lurk around this place.

I did indeed, and from it it was clear who you at least thought the main culprit was (obviously you've had some background info), and that Dave was an accessory in the Asylum penis-showing scandal.

Apart from that, with his wife-sharing talk and all that other posted crap (which I must have missed if it was early this year), he just seemed a bit stupid and fairly harmless... I still don't think he's a criminal genius hiding behind the incoherency, but if he's really talking to underage girls like that on Yahoo then he is obviously a pervert and deserves all he gets.

I'm not sure if some people plastering words like 'molester' on their new site is fair to the members of Horrormovies.com. There are other channels through which to give warnings.

We decided to keep this here for just one more day...Hopefully enough time for all of the members to be aware of what's going on, in order to avoid a constant influx of questions regarding the subject


This thread will self-destruct in less than 24 hours

You shouldn't have been allowed back after posting pictures of your ass and dick the first time you pervert.

Parents should monitor their kids and adults young or old should be mature enough to deal with it.
