Cleve Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 I took a look at the source code for one of MCA's posts - and it's a hotlink to an image file on some porno website. I don't think he could be 'prosecuted' for that, but he certainly could (and should) be perma-banned, unless it's a virus of some sort. Hopefully, he can be banned by IP rather than screen name. And as I mentioned in another post - I think this person and 'HondaRacing' are likely one in the same. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdmarsiii Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 A friend could have got on their comp, but its very unlikly. He hasnt contributed any useful info to the forum, has he? Of all that Ive seen, hes only caused problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audible Nectar Posted June 7, 2004 Author Share Posted June 7, 2004 I saw both "MiniCooperAddict" and "HondaRacing" post last week in a thread in General Questions about the Indy 500. It seemed benign, albeit off topic, but no big deal, really - that is, until today. While I suppose it is possible that someone else got on this person's computer, I would still send Detective Briscoe to bust some chops here, such as: "If it ain't you, pal, then who the hell is it, the Pillsbury Dough Boy? You better start singin' my tune, or we're taking a little trip downtown." DEFINITELY a prosecutable offense....at least, it should be.

Audible Nectar Posted June 7, 2004 Author Share Posted June 7, 2004 OK, Amy....it makes more sense now. I was going through my "mental list" of posters, and forgot about him. It makes me wonder how many other screennames this user has...... I sincerely hope this fella gets his legal due - lest anyone try it again. Maybe then, future hellraisers will think twice. Does anyone know any legal precedent for such actions? Can this be prosecuted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Amy Posted June 7, 2004 Moderators Share Posted June 7, 2004 I'm not sure if it's prosecutable or not. I'll definetly save the kiddie-porn reference thread and ask our lawyer, however. Not smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audible Nectar Posted June 7, 2004 Author Share Posted June 7, 2004 "Detective Briscoe" is from "Law And Order". He has a way of getting information out of people. Like walking up to a jobsite where a subject to be interrogated is working, and saying New Yawk style "how about you quit the tap-dancing, and start answering questions, or I'll give my buddy down at the building inspector's office a call, and check and see how safe things really are down here" I wouldn't mind this poster finding out what Rikers is like.

Audible Nectar Posted June 7, 2004 Author Share Posted June 7, 2004 m00n, Although that could potentially be restrictive (in other words, contrary to Klipsch's, and our aims to keep this as inclusive as possible), but having a bit of an application/approval process might be the way to go, where basic verifiable info would be given to Klipsch to participate, as many other forums currently do. Then again, if an example is made out of this particular offender, that could be used as a future example that it's not a good idea doing that kind of stuff around here.

dodger Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 Well a week waiting period to verify identity, email address and number of users would be allowable. This would be for all new registraions and as long as it is enforced to all new, that might help. dodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.4knee Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 I have not reviewed the scums posted link and will not but if it is kiddie porn then it is prosecutable in all 50 states as he would be guilty of promulgating it, which is highly illegal.

michaelstano Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 As for prosecutable: Title 21, Section 1021, Oklahoma Statutes A. Every person who willfully and knowingly . . . 3. Writes, composes, stereotypes, prints, photographs, designs, copies, draws, engraves, paints, molds, cuts, or otherwise prepares, publishes, sells, distributes, keeps for sale, knowingly downloads on a computer, or exhibits any obscene material or child pornography . . . shall be guilty, upon conviction, of a felony and shall be punished by the imposition of a fine of not less than Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) nor more than Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000.00) or by imprisonment for not less than thirty (30) days nor more than ten (10) years, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

dkp Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 The I.P. address is definitely something that the webmaster can get ahold of. I would imagine there is a way to block the I.P. address and simply ban the computer from logging on again. However, as the saying goes, "where there's a will, there's a way." This will only make it more difficult for him to log on. If he truly wants to get in, he will. I'm not sure of the best solution to this problem, but a strongly worded letter from the Klipsch attorney may be helpful, especially if young johnny rottencore is a minor. In that situation, I'm sure his parents would take care of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to keep him off, you'd have to block the entire range of IP adresses the ISP owns. So, say for example it was AOL or MSN, that probably wouldn't be a good thing.
