General Discussion

I am gagged MJ agreed to do an interview with us considering how much shit we've given her ever since she took over SI lol.

I'm back home now! I'm gonna reach out to some of the people I know to see if anyone is up for doing the intervies and will let yall know!

I also have another model who's interested in doing an interview for the blog. Her name is Eva Smite. She's actually on the forum and has provided proof of identity. Maybe we should have a list of generic questions that can be provided, or do you want me to inquire if she'll do a skype interview so it's a bit more real time?

Also, maybe we should compile a list somewhere for staff to have access to anyone who has provided proof of identity so that in the future if they have any further requests on taking down images etc we don't ask for proof again.

Well there are some generic questions I have been asking everyone, then personalizing it depending on what work they've done. I have a hard time doing Skype interviews just because I work 8-5 and then I usually have other stuff going on immediately when I get out. I probably could though if I'm given a few weeks notice though.

And yeah wouldn't hurt if we have a thread of models who have identified themselves so it's all in one place! 

We upgraded the forum, so hopefully its a bit faster and what not. Let me know if you see any issues, thanks

I did start compiling a list of model delete requests in here, so that we had more of a record of what was removed and why, although the thread itself is an old and probably rather out of date one at this point. Perhaps we could expand it though to include models who have provided us with proof of identity?

I think that's a good idea, I have a couple of models (or former models) who sent me pictured of their ID when requesting to remove their pictures/threads 

I'm having trouble changing the thumbs from some threads, I try to change it as always, but when I select the picture I want instead of asking me to crop it and such, it just refreshes the images, not sure why, it was working just fine until a couple of days ago

I have noticed that in the past, if the image is a particular format (not sure which) it does not accept the image. You just have to chose a different picture (usually from a different post). 

I'm using the upload pictures option, I'm changing some of the pictures and all the options we have are very old 

There's some paparazzi pictures of Candice Swanepoel naked in a beach and members are asking if those are okay to post, I said no because I honestly feel like this is a major violation of privacy and consent, and I also know we don't allow the leaked nudes either. But do we have an official rule for this? It's obviously not up to just me, so I'll delete the general warning post if needed. 

The leaked images are typically stolen from the cloud or other such services. The paparazzi images are just that. Paparazzi. I personally think they are two different problems, one which is cut and dry and the other being a bit more ambiguous.   I would probably allow the paparazzi images as they are being taken in a legal setting and aren’t being stolen from a private device. 

As much of a moral grey area as it is, and for what it's worth, I too think it's detrimental to the model topics (particularly since we have several models as members here), I don't think any laws have been broken so I'd imagine our hands are pretty much tied.

We know Candice is a regular visitor, and honestly if it was me in the pictures I'd be mad as hell. Is not like Candice knew the pictures were being taken so IDK ... I don't think having those pictures posted here would do any good, but it can do harm if Candice (or other models) start calling us out for allowing people to post them

Was it a public or private beach?

I have no idea, all I know is it was somewhere in Mexico and the paparazzi seems to have been hiding in some bushes

There are multiple pictures of Candice staring at the paps, she knew they were being taken lol. I see zero issues with them being posted. If Candice asks we'll remove them, till then, fair game imo

Hi Katchitup!

 

I've been in touch with Alyssa Conroy, and she was looking for some information in regards to the interview with MJ. Do you have Skype, or did you want to hash out the details on here?

Hey Pheno, any update with this? I'd be more than happy to Skype or do a Hangouts Meet to ask some questions when she has some free time!

So my mom has officially beat cancer.  She just had her last radiation treatment and her doctor said she's cancer free

I just reached out to Alyssa again to inquire when would be best for MJ. I'll see if I get a response. She was a little delayed initially I'm just wondering if the second reply didn't get lost in the shuffle when she went out of the country for one of the shoots.
