OK, this is not an entry about murder. Thank you Franko Anyway, a few years back I got an email to the main account (ie. a “letter to the editor” legally) complaining about BME/HARD and such and telling me how disgusting and sick it was and the typical junk. Today I received the following email (this is an excerpt since I probably can't legally fully publish this one):
I would like to formally request that you remove the email I sent to your support a few years back. I'm tired of it being there, and it's purpose has been served.Not only do you directly call me an idiot at the top of the page, but you post my REAL NAME AND EMAIL without my permission. Remove it IMMEDIATELY or face further action.
**** ****
Still a non-customer. Still thinks you people are disgusting and very disturbed.
As someone who's had this happen to them (Skin&Ink I think published a writer's query of mine a long time ago in order to insult heavy mods), I know he's got no right to demand something like this, and I'm not about to bend over for someone who continues to insult BME. And the kicker is that I didn't even call him an idiot — no commentary whatsoever was attached to his email.
Anyway, here was Franko's reply (including his quotes, to be clear):
>Not only do you directly call me an idiot at the top
>of the page, but you post my REAL NAME AND EMAIL without
>my permission. Remove it IMMEDIATELY or face further
>action.You wrote a letter to the editor. From this letter it's clear that you do take responsibility for writing it. When you write a letter to the editor of a magazine, sometimes it gets published. Isn't that what you wanted?
In any case, this isn't even written from the same email address, so how do we know you're even the same person? If you'd like it removed, send us proof of identity (a scan of your ID including your name and address) and we'll be glad to pass on your request to the appropriate people.
>Still a non-customer. Still thinks you people are
>disgusting and very disturbed.What a co-incidence! We still think you're an idiot!
Yeah, I know it's mean… My apologies go out to the idiots of the world. I'm sorry I don't take you more seriously, clearly I should have respected your opinion that I am sick and disgusting.
