quote: ORIGINAL: needlesandpins sorry VAA but i find that a hugely flippant comment that is unbecoming of admin. if admin just don't care then fine. if people can actually flaunt the rules of the site and claim that they are people in photos that are not them then fine. i reported a guy for using a photo that he claims is him when it isn't. as far as i'm concerned it's admin's job from there. i'm not employed by the site to do the leg work so why should i bother. makes interpretating the rules a little awkward though. needles At the risk of appearing flippant, I am not employed by the site either. The site has no employees, just volunteers. There are rules in place so that when someone has their picture stolen, or a picture that belongs to them so that they can report it. What should we do, whenever someone reports a photo(and believe it or not, there are people who hit the "report photo" button out of spite. I know, hard to believe, aint it?) we should contact the person YOU SAY the photo belongs to, or are we supposed to know that in fact, the one you reported belongs to John Doe, Not MasterX, whose profile it's on. Should we then magically know how to contact John Doe, because, You, userC has reported it? Do you not see all the possible problems with those scenarios?

Or you could volunteer to spend hours and hours every day checking each and every one of the several hundred new photos submitted every day and contacting each person to determine if they have the rights to use the picture and then confirming those claims. It should only take up about 48 hours out of every 24. The other option is to say "Huh, he's a liar and a lousy one at that, glad I found out right away and didn't end up involved with him". Couple of THOUSAND per day is more accurate [;)]

i get your point, however, my report was not about the fact that the guy doesn't own the photo, but the fact that he's claiming it's a photo of himself which it is not. the photo is a crop of a very well known actor. now it doesn't take anything at all to ask someone to prove their identity to admin. this guy can't though as it's definately not him. the pic he sent me as supposed proof is nothing like the photo he's claiming is him. now i also get the fact that there are alot of photos and people do things through spite, but this isn't a claim on the sly, it's an actor and so very easy to verify. whether people volunteer or get paid doesn't change the fact that you are there as a figure to do a job. still, it remains the fact that people can use photos in a way that break the site rules, and when reported nothing gets done. it doesn't instill much faith, but does give the attitude of sod it, what's the point. needles

tiggerspoohbear -> RE: Identify Fake Profiles (9/18/2011 1:44:03 PM)
Bejeeeeeeeeeeeezus, get over it. Anyone looking at his profile will know it's not the actor, whoever it is. And no one gives a damn about you carrying on about it. If you're that upset about it, block and ignore the guy. How hard is that to do? You're not the photo police, and he'll get called on it by others who'll know it's not him too. People are grown up enough around here ( at least I'd hope so) to know it's a fake photo and bypass him if they don't like what he's done. See? Isn't that easy peasy? [8\|]

quote: ORIGINAL: WCPD09 Why CM doesn't screen posted photos this way is beyond me. To expand the point about what VAA said, can you imagine how silly it would sound to a radio station if you asked them to look up the copyright of every new song they played? Radio stations only deal with dozens of new releases at a time . . . CollarMe receives 200,000 new visitors a month and 1 in every 5,000 North American internet users visit CollarMe.com daily. That adds up to a lot of profile content activity. I can understand why CollarMe doesn't hire more staff, use the service you recommend or buy facial recognition software to check for fakes (or terrorists) for the free service it provides. I'm just guessing, but I'd bet you didn't go to the Copyright Office, Library of Congress and look up the owners of the plagiarized porn pics you found and notify them.
