What would you do if a BRO threatened you with a lawsuit over a poem you wrote?

      I need to decide if I'm willing to give up working in the adult industry entirely, spend significant time and money, risk everything that I have, in order to protect a couple of parodies that I have written.

      This isn't about "having balls" or "chickening out" and this isn't about "board drama". This is about some things far more fundamental than that, and about things that will effect my everyday real-world life in some major ways.

      Never in my life have I deleted anything that I have written. I've worked hard through the years raising tens of thousands of dollars for groups like the ACLU and the FSC. Believe me when I say that I don't take this matter lightly.

      I'm doing some serious inner searching over this matter, and don't want to act without thinking everything through thoroughly.
      Post the e-mail/letter that was sent to you. There is no crime in that (in fact there is no crime in anything you've done).

        i think that you, more than anyone has the unique talent to rally support. don't let anyone influence your decision where you alone will pay the price or bear the burdens, but remember that you won't be alone either... and plenty of people will stand behind you.

                  Let's say, hypothetically, a BRO made somewhat of an ass of himself on a certain message board.

                  You thought it was funnay, so you wrote a parody poem summarizing the incident, and the things that he wrote on the public forum.

                  Then the BRO realizes he might have went too far in his original thread, and wants the whole incident erased from the minds of the masses.

                  So, the BRO tells you if you don't delete your poem, he will sick his pitt bull lawyer on you, and it's going to cost you big money.

                  What would you do?
                  Tell the BRO to suck your ass. These idiots aren't going to waste money on a pointless lawsuit. Shit, they have to buy drinks for their bros at the next convention.

                      Take that blog down and burn it. It was kinda funny but not worth pissing off people that can make you money (ya never know)

                        I guess I won't be posting my original comments about allegations regarding Rodman's dick.

                        It would appear that at least one company and/or person may be the recipient of misplaced respect.

                              He can out them right now if he wants to. There isn't a secret rule about keeping every e-mail/letter you get private. If you got a C&D, post it. You really think they will sue you for posting a letter they sent you?

                                was this the DrinkingHard + TMC poem? If GTS are threatening you then that's ridiculous and they don't stand a chance.

                                      are the Bros related to Scientologists?

                                      both seem to have more lawyers and money than brains or balls, and no sense of humor

                                          I'm just surprised you let it get to you. They have nothing to sue you for. It's just a lame threat to get you to take it down and it appears to have worked. Fuck dude, if they sued you, we'd all pitch in for the legal bills, although this would be laughed out of court right away.

                                              Well at least post what they sent you. They can't sue you for something they fucking wrote.

                                                My poem was nothing but taking things that THEY wrote and parodying them and making them rhyme.

                                                  This has to be fake drama for publicity or something, because if this is true, therapy is needed.

                                                    DEFINITELY not fake drama! I promise you all that. It's totally messed up.

Btw, i agree with you.. it has nothing to do with balls.. who wants to waste time and risk money and health over couple of humorous poems.. Even if its probably bluff.. But 3 companies? Thats kinda of shocking..

                                                        That is some majorly shady shit, and I would be inclined to think far worse of someone for pressuring you in these circumstances than for anything you said in the first place. One more circumstance of "damage control" causing more damage than what was to be controlled in the first place.
                                                        I got a giggle out of the site; I'm sorry to see it go and I'm doubly sorry that someone thinks it was a threat to them. No more fun here much anymore.

                                                            I need to decide for myself what I am or am not willing to risk in order to defend my First Amendment rights at this point.

                                                            If I go down this road, I guarantee you all right here and now, I won't be the one most people in this community will be siding with either. Too many business relationships involving too much money surround the people/companies that will be attacking me.

                                                            I need to decide if I'm willing to give up working in the adult industry entirely, spend significant time and money, risk everything that I have, in order to protect a couple of parodies that I have written.

                                                            This isn't about "having balls" or "chickening out" and this isn't about "board drama". This is about some things far more fundamental than that, and about things that will effect my everyday real-world life in some major ways.

                                                            Never in my life have I deleted anything that I have written. I've worked hard through the years raising tens of thousands of dollars for groups like the ACLU and the FSC. Believe me when I say that I don't take this matter lightly.

                                                            I'm doing some serious inner searching over this matter, and don't want to act without thinking everything through thoroughly.

                                                            As always, "Teh BoyAlley" lubbins all his breeders.........
