Prof_Fate also left FM, not sure if it was willingly or if he was asked to. Personally he could be helpful but in usually a mostly assinine way. Hopefully he cools off and comes to his senses and goes back to being helpful in a somewhat calmer method somewhere. Just not likely to be here or FM.

NOT WITHOUT A FIGH...

I think it's more like "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here!"

I think on the one side he WAS only trying to be helpful, but came across as a bit of a loon as a result.

On the other side he is probably REALLY REALLY ashamed of his outburst and bet he wishes he could take it back.. I know I have posted some pretty close to the knuckle things on this site, but once I hit the POST button I will go back an edit it out. It seems he didn't have that ability on the FM site - I am sure he would of removed it pretty sharpish otherwise.

Nevermind. Next.

I went looking for the original quote that you selected and even went so far as to look up the Photographer Profile for the user named definition of stress.

Does that make me gullible?

To be honest, I feel like it was all under control until Prof_Fate himself took it to the next level. DrAchoo was okay with other people using his photo (under this given circumstance) and the Prof was unable to accept this and got more and more upset with each post. The crude FM post was just the grand finale. I think it was nice and thoughtful of him to try to seek out the original photographer, but it should have been left at that. If the photographer is okay with how it's being used, it should be left at that. No harm done.

ditto, brian. it might be that his last contribution is an example of how not to behave on the internet.

Prof fate has left the building!

"Sorry, this account is no longer active" is what I saw when I just went to take a look at his profile.

I was curious to see if he had returned to his typical, helpful posts since the flare up yesterday. I was hoping that he had cooled down and that everything was going back to normal.

It's sad that what started out as something that he felt he was doing as a service grew so out of control and resulted in his leaving this site.

If he'd handled it in a regular, calm, rational manner like most people, it wouldn't have grown out of control :|

and that one post that yak is talking about is a perfect example of the digital tattoo, to be permanently associated with an individual, never to be removed. thanks, prof, for adding to my collection of things to teach my kids not to do!

edited for clarity...

Thank you DrAchoo. Sorry for the language folks. I don't like to be pushed and on another forum at that.


I reported the suck my balls post to the moderators there, but they are asleep. I thought I'd try and get the attention since repeated PMs didn't seem to do it.


I have to come out of lurker mode on this one and say that what you posted on the FM site was wrong. In poor taste doesn't even come close to quantifying it.

I knew that you sometimes come off as somewhat controversial on this site but I still respected you, your knowledge, your willingness to help others with your knowledge and experience, and I respected you as a person of class. But what I just read over there has seriously caused me to lose respect for you and to question my own judgement.

And because of this he should have shown restraint and deference to Jason's opinion. It should be a matter of respect for his reputation and this site.

am absolutely blown away, not by Prof_Fate as much as the rest of you. One of our own, steps up, and says in essence, I know this image, It does not belong to you, and you have posted it with out giving the photographer proper credit. Then he posted here reporting a photo used without permission . And as a reward is promptly insulted on 2 different photography websites.

Then we have Sam who stands for image confiscation, and is now in the attaboy club somehow.

Oh and by the way, about the profanity, look midway threw page 2 of Sam’s proffered post to see how selective are the offences to his delicate sensibilities, and exactly how firmly he dealt with it..

Certainly got lots of attention!

Any publicity is good publicity eh?? Unless you are hoping someone chokes on their own c*m...

As the kids would say.... EPIC FAIL...

heh, I am so leet.

This:

Hindsight= ("Hey Sam, might be a good idea to post a little attribution for some of these. I think I know a dude who took one of them. I'll see if I can dig his name up. Just a good idea IMHO. I don't want to be a huge douche bag or anything.)/Hindsight

Likely Reasonable Outcome= ("Hey Prof_Fat, thanks. Didn't think of it, since these are pretty much all over the place already. I know these links go to HERE, HERE and HERE, and the rest came from BLOGX. No offense intended, dudz. ; insert* RickRoll, if x>y, y[person receiving joke isn't douche bag].) / Likely Reasonable Outcome.
